Did you remove the valve from the counterlung?? If not STOP and wait for your instructor.. If you have gone this far you might as well finish..
Its a standard ds addition valve.. the top portion (stationary base and rotating section) seperate from the securing base inside the cl.. The top 2 plastic sections were not designed to be taken apart!
next take off the isc logo and use a 2.5mm allen key on the metal button on top and a 4mm allen key on the stem inside.. now unscrew and pop the button off.. Clean, metal parts, change o-rings and relube.. screw back together, the install back on the counterlung..
Thankyou....
I have removed it because I found a part of the inside nut dangling around inside the counter lung. It would appear to be a baffle plate which is attached to the back of the nut. Somehow it has separated from the inner part which has the thread.
I did a quick check of the logo and thought it didn't have anything behind it. DOOOH
Thanks everyone for your help.
