Flomatic Disassembly – Figures 4A - 4D<br />

1. Turn the cap screws (#1) counterclockwise. Remove cap screws<br />

and lockwashers (#2).<br />

2. Remove the strainer (#3).<br />

3. Loosen the set screw (#5) located on the side of the cylinder.<br />

4. Carefully remove the cylinder (#4) by turning it counterclockwise<br />

and threading it off the body. Use caution when removing cylinder!<br />

The return spring (#6) will push the cylinder upward.<br />

5. Remove the loose return spring (#6) and screen fi lters (#7) from<br />

the top of the piston assembly (#8).<br />

6. Place the valve body in a horizontal position on a workbench<br />

to gain access to lower part of valve.<br />

7. Remove the piston retainer assembly (#15) by turning it<br />

counterclockwise until it disengages from the lower body.<br />

8. Remove the large piston and seat disc assembly (#8) from<br />

the top of the valve.<br />

9. Remove the packing nut assembly (#40) by turning it<br />

counterclockwise until it disengages from valve body and<br />

indicating stem (#36).<br />

that component. A smooth machined fi nish on the pilot piston and<br />

cylinder is essential for proper valve operation.<br />
