Seat, 1 Valve Ball Holder, 1 Valve
Spring Unit
1. Repeat dismantling procedure as
outlined above under Steps 1
through 3.
2. Unscrew nut, remove retainer with
retainer pins and push shaft of the
valve spring unit out of the gun
head.
3. Clean gun head bore with solvent
and small brush. Do not use any
sharp objects to scrape away dried

unit until you feel a positive stop. At
that point, continue tightening the
valve spring another 1/8 turn,
expanding the Teflon seals against
body of gun.
Do not tighten
valve spring beyond
