1) Inspect the interior of the regulator body and make
sure that it is clean and there is no foreign matter.
2) Install the o-ring into the regulator body.
3) Place the exhaust valve insert in the regulator body.
The insert must be oriented so that it seals against
the o-ring and the exhaust valve will mate properly
with the insert.
4) Use a flat blade screwdriver to push the retainer clip
into the opening in the regulator body for the exhaust
valve insert. The clip should lock into place.
5) Install the exhaust valve into the exhaust valve
insert. Cut off any excess tail from the exhaust valve
that protrudes into the regulator body.
To test to see if the insert is installed properly, try to
spin the insert. It should not turn. You should not be
able to dislodge the insert by hand. Friction between
the insert, the o-ring and the regulator body should
hold the insert in its proper position.
The regulator body must be clean and free of
foreign matter.
Install the o-ring and valve insert.
Install the retainer clip.
