5. After the valve is completely removed from the line, slowly

relieve air pressure from the actuator.

Removing Actuator From Body

In most cases, both the body assembly and the actuator are

easier to disassemble with the actuator removed from the

body. To do so, proceed as follows:
1. Support actuator assembly by the lifting ring before dis-

connecting it from the body assembly.

2. Remove the transfer case cover bolts. Carefully pry or

slide the cover plate from the end of the shaft.

3. On Valtek actuators with a clamping lever arm design,

loosen the linkage bolt.

4. Loosen the actuator adjusting screw to release spring

pressure.

5. Remove the bolts connecting yoke to the actuator subas-

sembly.

6. Slide entire actuator assembly off the shaft. For Valtek

actuators with a clamping lever-arm design, it may be

necessary to wedge the halves of splined lever arm apart

to loosen it from the shaft splines.

Disassembling the Body

To disassemble the body, refer to Figures 1, 2 and 5 and

proceed as follows:
1. On Valdisk valves supplied with seat retainer screws,

remove the seat retainer screws and retainer clips. Lift

the seat retainer out of the valve body. (Refer to Figures

1A, B, C).

2. On valves supplied with retainer snap-ring configuration,

carefully insert a screwdriver in the key slot provided in

the retainer; pry the retainer and snap ring out of the valve

body. (Refer to Figure 1D).

3. Remove the gland flange by removing both packing nuts.

It is not necessary to remove the studs.

4. Drive the taper pins out of the disc by tapping on the small

end of the pins using a punch and hammer.

5. Remove the end plug (optional bolted flange and seal if

applicable).

6. Remove shaft by inserting a press or a nylon rod (or simi-

lar material) into bodyís blind end, and using a hammer,

carefully tap the shaft through the body.

CAUTION: Take special care not to damage the splined

end of the shaft during disassembly.

To prevent scratching the sealing surface of the disc while

removing the shaft, place supports underneath the disc.

This also prevents the shaft from binding in the body as

the shaft comes off the bearing surfaces.
