Hi, I need to reseal my spool valve it's a three lever Kontak valve, I can get the seals from eBay but I have never stripped one out before, does anybody have information on this valve or a video link showing how to strip them.

Any help would be great

Take the knobs off the position & draught levers & remove the cover & sponge
remove the pipes off the valves underneath
the 3 valves are held on with 3 bolts through the end plate , 9/16 spanner , undo these bolts & the valves will come off ,note the bolts are different lengths,

because you have 3 slices they have to come off in 1 piece ( bolts wont come out until on the bench)

now you can split them up remember to keep the valves on the same order

new o rings 5 off are 4 different sizes , make sure they are not to thick , stick them in with grease , doth forget the ones in the bottom of the valve around the popet vale that the bottom bolt goes through .

refit as 1 lump in reverse order, you might need a helper as it’s quite heavy , 1 underneath & 1 on top

its quite a fiddle so take your time
 

Have you taken any land out of production from last autumn?
