SECTION VIII
MANUAL GEAR OPERATOR INSTALLATION

1. Close the valve. The flats on top of the stem should be

parallel with the valve flange face. (Refer to FIGURE

6.) Note: At this time, adjustments should be made to

ensure that the body’s machined flanged surface (6) is

parallel with the disc. To accomplish this, place the valve

body’s machined flange surface (6) on a level plate.

Position a bubble level on the upper side of the shaft flat

and adjust the shaft until completely level.

When placing the valve into the vice, grip the bottom of the

valve only. Do not grip the bottom edge of the retainer ring,

this can damage the retainer ring/gasket sealing surface. Refer

to FigurE 5. Note: Vice should have soft jaws.

Alternate method acceptable

but not recommended

2. Place bracket (7) on the valve body as shown in FIGURE 6.

Attach using the brackets fasteners (8), lock washers

and hex nuts, making the fasteners finger-tight.

3. Rotate the gearbox handwheel (1) clockwise until the

gearbox pointer (2) indicates the “shut” position.

4. Place the gearbox on the bracket (7) as shown in

FIGURE 6.

5. Loosen the gearbox stopping screws (3) and (9).
6. Install the gearbox fasteners (4) and lock washers and

tighten. Bracket fasteners (8) must also be tightened.

7. Turn the gearbox closing stop screw (9) clockwise until

it stops, then tighten the locknut (10).

8. Turn the gearbox handwheel (1) counterclockwise to

open the valve until the disc face is perpendicular to the

valve body flange face.

9. Turn the gearbox opening stop screw (3) clockwise until

it stops, then tighten the locknut (5).

10. Cycle the valve from closed to open to closed again

using the gear operator. Recheck to make sure the disc

is centered on the seat by measuring the distance from

the machined surface on the disc to the machine flanged

surface (6) on the body. This should be done at two

points, one above or below the disc over travel stop and

the other 180 degrees from the first. Both measurements

should be equal.
