Lungiselela Uhlelo:
- Turn off the pool pump and all electrical power to the filtration system at the main breaker.
- Open the air relief valve on the filter tank to release any pressure.
- If your valve has a sight glass, ensure it is clear of water.
Access the Multiport Valve Internals:
- Depending on your valve model, you may need to remove screws or clamps securing the top handle assembly to the valve body.
- Carefully lift the handle assembly, exposing the internal components, including the diverter and the spring.
Susa iNtwasahlobo Endala:
- Locate the existing spring, which is typically positioned around the diverter shaft.
- Carefully remove the old spring. Note its orientation and how it interacts with the diverter and valve body.
Hlola futhi Uhlanze:
- While the valve is open, inspect the diverter, spider gasket, and other seals for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. Replace any worn components as needed.
- Clean any debris or sand from the valve body and internal parts.
Install the New SPX0603S Spring:
- Place the new Hayward SPX0603S spring onto the diverter shaft, ensuring it is seated correctly. The spring provides the necessary tension for the diverter to seal properly against the spider gasket.
Reassemble the Multiport Valve:
- Carefully lower the handle assembly back onto the valve body, ensuring the diverter aligns correctly with the ports and the spring compresses evenly.
- Secure the handle assembly with the screws or clamps that were removed earlier. Tighten them evenly to ensure a proper seal.
Restore System Operation:
- Close the air relief valve.
- Restore electrical power to the pool pump.
- Check for any leaks around the multiport valve. If leaks occur, turn off the pump, relieve pressure, and re-check the assembly and seating of all components.
