Clean all the parts thoroughly before reassembling

wear, replacing parts as needed.
Prior to installation, lubricate all seals and o-rings
with PARKER-O-LUBE or an equivalent lubricant.
Check with the material supplier for a compatible
lubricant.
To reassemble the AMV, perform the following proce-
dure:
1. Install the o-rings (17*, 16*, and 14*) and the
back-up ring (22*) on the fluid piston (6a).
Stand the body (1) on the retainer end. Press the
fluid piston into the body using a dowel.
2. Reassemble the needle valve (6) and air piston
(4) as follows:
a. Attach the needle chuck to the needle (6b) and
insert the needle through the fluid piston (6a),
threaded end first.
b. Install the quad ring (20*) on the air piston (4)
by carefully stretching the quad ring into the
groove in the piston. On AMV C02078 only,
install the second quad ring (21) on the
piston.
3. Install the spring (23, not present on AMV C02078)
and the air piston (4) into the body (1).

er (2) as follows:

threaded end down. Press the needle seal
(6c) into the cavity using a 1/4 in (6 mm)
dowel. Install the o-ring (15*) and support
washer (9).
b. Install the retaining ring (12*) with a retaining
ring compression tool.
7. Thread the retainer (2) into the body (1).
8. Turn the nut (8) clockwise to install and lock the
