An oversize Valve (2) must be lapped into the Valve Box.
Use Grade 320 lapping compound and proceed as follows:
Install the Valve on the No. 29189 or No. 29407 Valve Lapping
Arbor as shown in Figure 1.
Apply lapping compound to diameter“C”only; keep diameter
“B” free of compound at all times. Insert the compound–
coated end of the Valve into the rear section of the Valve Box
as shown in Figure 2 and lap until a free t is obtained.
Wipe all compound from the Valve and from internal diameter
“B” in the Valve Box. Allow the compound to remain on
internal diameter “C”.
Install the front section of the Valve Box and Valve on the
Arbor as shown in Figure 3.
Apply compound to Valve diameter“A” and lap the small end
of the valve to a free t in the front section.
Slide the rear section of the Valve Box over the Valve and
assemble it on the front section as shown in Figure 4. Lap the
Valve until it ts freely in the assembled Valve Box.
2. Disassemble the Valve Box, clean the air ports with a 1/32” drill
and wash the Valve and both sections of the Valve Box in suitable
solution to remove all trace of the compound.
3. Apply 6 or 8 drops of light oil to the external surface of the Valve
and assemble it with the Dowel Pin (1) in the Valve Box. Shake the
assembly to see that the Valve moves freely in the Valve Box..
