INITIAL SET-UP:
Tools Required
General Mechanics Tool Kit (Appendix B, Section III, Item 4)
Material/Parts Required
Tape, Anti-seize (Appendix C, Section II, Item 19)
Lockwashers (TM 10-4610-241-24P)

serious injury or death may result. Be sure to open all drains and vents before
performing maintenance.
a.
Removal.
NOTE
On Models WPES-10, WPES-20, and WPES-30, there are seven drain
ball valves. On Models H-9518-1, H-9518-2, and H-9518-3, there are
six drain ball valves. All are installed the same. One is shown, the
others are similar.
(1)
Loosen nut (1) and disconnect tube (2) from adapter (8).
(2)
Remove nut (3), lockwasher (4) (high pressure valve only) and handle (5) form
drain ball valve (9).
CAUTION
Vessel and pulse dampener lines require high pressure valves (Models
H-9518-1, H-9518-2, and H-9518-3 do not have a pulse dampener
line). If more than one valve is to be replaced, be sure to tag valves,
identifying them as high or low pressure valves to ensure correct
installation.
(3)
Support drain ball valve (9) and remove two screws (6) and lo&washers (7).
