Part List (PDF)
The Humat 4-way valve is essentially maintenance free, since there are no packing
glands or sophisticated seals used in it. Adjustment of the butterfly can be done
externally. See "Butterfly Replacement and Adjustment" for adjustment procedures.
Lubrications, such as a mixture of oil and graphite or equivalent, is recommended for
the threads. The pellets bearings and races of the female swivel do not require
lubrication; however, the swivels will turn more easily when lubricated. If a lubricant is
used, dry graphite is recommended. Remove the slotted set screw on the swivel
and apply a small amount of graphite through the set screw hole. An oil based
lubricant will tend to pick-up dirt and debris which prevents smooth turning of the
swivel.
