1. Shut off water supply to valve.

2. Remove handle (VT-112) by loosening

handle screw and pull off handle.

Unscrew dome cover (SC-13), lift off

indicator (VT-104) gently with thin screw

driver in slot so as not to break snaps.

Unscrew two escutcheon screws and

remove escutcheon assembly by sliding

toward you being careful not to damage

thermometer tube. Place escutcheon

face down on soft surface to prevent

damage.

3. Open valve to about warm position

and unscrew cap (SC-2). WARNING:

FAILURE TO OPEN VALVE WILL

DAMAGE CAP AND SPINDLE. Spindle

assembly (C-5) will be removed with cap.

Leave packing nut (SC-7) in place while

unscrewing cap to avoid distortion.

4. Ordinary service to eliminate dripping

or not shutting off requires only the

replacement of parts supplied in washer

and gasket kit (KIT-B-VT). Hold spindle

with valve handle (VT-112) while

removing hot washer screw (SC-10A)

and cold washer retainer (SC-9) (remove

retainer with channel lock pliers).

Replace washers reversing step 4.

5. Inspect surfaces of renewable seat (SC-3)

and replace if necessary. Clean seat

surfaces for proper sealing of top seat

o-ring (SC-20A) and bottom seat gasket

(SC-21). Use renewable seat socket

wrench (C-50). Tighten seat to 15 foot

pounds of torque.

6. The perforated end of the (C-5) spindle

assembly houses the balancing piston

which is the heart of this pressure

balancing valve. The piston should

be free to move back and forth and

should click when the spindle assembly

is shaken. If deposits block this action,

tap the handle end of the spindle

against a solid object to free the piston.

Soaking in household vinegar will help

free foreign matter. If this does not free

piston, replace (C-5) spindle assembly.

DO NOT TAMPER WITH PERFORATED

CYLINDER ON THE SPINDLE ASSEMBLY

OR ATTEMPT REMOVAL OF THE PISTON.

PARTS. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL VOID

ALL WARRANTIES AND IMPAIR PROPER

OPERATION OF YOUR VALVE.
