Install bodies by
screwing them into
the base plate of the
5510.45 dome port.
The seal between the
body and the dome
base plate is a side to
side seal and requires
the o-ring to be lightly
lubricated for easy
installation. Remove
the body/base plate
o-ring, put a small
amount of lubricant
on your fingers and
pull the o-ring through
your fingers to lightly lubricate it. Do not stretch the o-ring.
Check that the o-ring groove in the body where the o-ring fits
and the sealing surface on
the port base plate are clean.
Replace the o-ring onto the
body and then screw the
body into the base plate of
the dome port. Screw the
body in until it stops. The
front edge of the body should
be flush or slightly above the
inside face of the dome base
plate as shown
in the cross-section.
