(CONTINUED)
With the solenoid detached from the manifold, use a
small flat instrument to gently lever the two solenoid
retainer clips off the solenoid
(SEE FIGURE 24G).
This will allow you to split the solenoid into two and
access the spool valve.
Using a pair of needle-nose pliers remove the spool
shaft from the main section of the solenoid
(SEE
FIGURE 24H)
. Note that it is the flat side of the
spool shaft that is facing you when you remove the
spool shaft. It may be necessary to also remove the
front cap of the solenoid to push the shaft out, if it
cannot be pulled out with the needle nose pliers.
Thoroughly clean and inspect the spool shaft and its
o-rings for any debris or dirt
(SEE FIGURE 24I).
Lubricate the o-rings using Eclipse Grease lubricant
and re-insert the spool shaft into the solenoid body,
insuring that the concave end goes in first.
FIGURE
24j
shows the concave end and FIGURE 24K
shows the flat end.
Ensure the solenoid manifold is attached to the Etek4
body before attempting to attach the solenoid.
Replace the two solenoid retaining clips to the sides
of the solenoid body. Then having ensured that the
small manifold gasket is in place; screw the solenoid
back into the correct position on the manifold. For
reference, the pilot end of the solenoid with the metal
casing should be towards the front of the marker as
shown in
FIGURE 24L.
You have now stripped and cleaned your Etek4
solenoid.
