Read all of the instructions before proceeding.
Refer to Kadant Johnson assembly drawing for part identification and to drawing A37640 for torque specifications. For easy identification, parts used in individual steps are often accompanied with their position in the assembly drawing [e.g. gasket (8B)]. Tighten all fasteners in a star pattern. Certified drawings are available upon request. Dimensions are for reference only and subject to change.
Check that the adjustment screw (2D) is tight, this will prevent making syphon adjustments later. Disconnect the piping.
Equipment must be cool and free of pressure.

Install a new energized seal on the nipple with the cup or "U" shape facing away from the nipple.
Place the body back into the press and install the springs. Lubricate the energized seal and the bore of the body with silicone lubricant.
Press the nipple into the body aligning the pins with the holes in the body. Install the retaining ring and release the press.
Important: Ensure the that the lip of the energized seal has not folded over by viewing from the back side of the body. If damaged, replace with a new energized seal.
Spring force present during installation.

Position the head on the horizontal tube. Finger tighten the nut on the horizontal tube.
Important: Make sure that the key on the horizontal pipe is engaged with a keyway on the head.
Note: Orient the outlet connection in the desired position.
Insert the cap screws (2A) into the retaining ring. Slide the spring washers (2B) over the cap screws with the convex side facing the retaining ring.
Install the retaining ring into the head. Fasten retaining ring and head to the body with cap screws. Torque 30 to 42 ft-lbs (41 to 57 Nm).
Important: Install the retaining ring and head so that they are centered on the body.
Torque the horizontal tube nut to 175 to 200 ft-lbs. (237 to 271 Nm).
