(9) Place the ring (2) on the pressure control
and align holes.
(10) Install the cap screws (1) in the ring and
tighten them securely.
(11) Assemble and install the remaining cycl-
ing valve assembly by following the procedures in
(1) thru (10) above.
4-22. Pilot Valve.
a. Testing.
(1) Prepare the drum for filling (para 4-3 a).
(2) Block the pressure control off the ground
as shown in figure 4-12.
(3) Remove the bottom plug (14, fig. 4-11) from
the pressure control.
(4) Connect a pressure gage that reads from 0
to 6 psi (0 to 0.42 kg/sq cm) to the pressure control
(fig. 4-12).
(5) Start filling the drum (para 4-3 b) and
observe the pressure gage during the filling opera-
tion. If the pressure gage reaches 5 psi (0.4 kg/sq
cm) and the pressure control does not shut off,
press the STOP button. Adjust the pilot valve
assembly, paragraph b below.
NOTE
The pressure should reach a maximum
of 5 psi (0.4 kg/sq cm) just as the
wrinkles come out of the drum and it
assumes a firm cylindrical shape.
(6) If the pressure control shuts off before the
pressure gage reaches 4.5 psi (0.32 kg/sq cm), ad-
just the pilot vale assembly (b below).
b. Adjustment.
(1) Remove the cap screws (1, fig. 4-13) from the
pressure control.
(2) Remove the nuts (15) from the four screws
(12) and remove the screws from the pressure con-
trol.
(3) Separate the housing bodies (11 and 16).
(4) Loosen the nut as shown in A, figure 4-14 to
allow turning of the valve stem as shown in B,
figure 4-14.
(5) Turn the valve stem clockwise to increase
pressure; counterclockwise to decrease pressure.
NOTE
Turning the valve stem out 1/4 of a turn
will change the pressure approximately
1 psi (0.07 kg/sq cm).
(6) Tighten the nut to lock the valve stem.
(7) Place the housing bodies together, and in-
stall the capscrew, screw, and nuts by reversing
the procedures in (1) and (2) above. Tighten the
nuts to 20 foot-pounds (2.77 m-kg) torque.
(8) Retest the pilot valve (a above).
(9) Readjust and retest until pressure is 4.5
pounds per square inch (0.32 kg/sq cm) ±0.5
pounds-per square inch (0.04 kg/sq cm).
(10) Perform the procedures in (1) thru (4)
above and replace the preformed packings (14, fig.
4-13).
(11) Perform the procedures in (7) above.
c. Removal and Disassembly.
(1) Remove the capscrew (1, fig. 4-13), from the
pressure control.
(2) Remove the nuts (15) from the four screws
(12 and 18) and remove the screws from the
pressure control.
(3) Separate the housing bodies (11 and 16) and
stand (17).
(4) Remove the three screws (10) from the
bellows assembly (4) and remove the bellows
assembly from the housing body.
(5) Remove nut (8) from valve stem (7).
(6) Remove the preformed packings (2 and 3)
and seal (5).
(7) Grasp the threaded end of the valve stem
(7), turn it clockwise and remove the valve stem
from the bellows assembly.
(8) Remove the retaining ring (6) and valve
guide (9) from the valve stem.
d. Cleaning, Inspection, and Repair.
(1) Wash the bellows assembly parts in hot,
mild soap and water solution to remove any
foreign matter. Allow the parts to dry.
(2) Inspect the bellows assembly for cracks or
breaks.
(3) Inspect burred valve stem or damaged
valve stem threads.
(4) Replace all unserviceable parts as authoriz-
ed.
e. Reassembly and Installation.
(1) Install the valve guide (9, fig. 4-13) and re-
taining ring (6) on valve stem (7).
(2) Grasp the unthreaded end of the valve
stem, place the threaded end in the bellows
