NOTE: Refer to Fig. 4 for steps 6 to 11.
6.Remove the screws (31) and lockwashers (13) from the manifold (20).
7.To prevent the spring-loaded director valves
(3)from popping out, carefully lift the manifold
(20)up about 51 mm (2 in.) from the cylinder (36). Place one hand under the manifold to hold the director valves in the valve housing (5), then continue lifting the manifold. Remove your hand slowly, allowing the valve springs to release gently. Inspect the director valves (3) and compression springs (4).
8.Turn the manifold (20) over. Place wrenches on the flats of the adjusting screw (11) and nut (12) and turn the screw further into the nut until you can remove it. Do this in all four positions.
WARNING
The openings in the valve plates (2) are very sharp. Be careful not to cut yourself.
