2. Connect the wiring with miniature lamp (1) and a battery (2)
between valve bracket (3) and linkage (4) with each end of
wiring clipped.
This wiring is necessary to find the moment at which piston
within the valve assembly is brought into connect with the
linkage.
Note:
As the linkage is coated with insulation material, turn the
clip (5) with 2 or 3 turns to break insulation.
3. Loosen the nut (6) and raise the valve assembly (7) all the
way.
Then lower the valve assembly gradually and tighten the nut
(6) when miniature lamp (1) turns on.

Note:
If the miniature lamp (1) goes out as the nut (6) is
tightened, lower the valve assembly (7) slightly with the
nut loosened, then retighten the nut(6).
4. Depress the linkage (4) near the valve assembly slightly
downward with finger (test pressue:0.5-0.8kg) and check to
see if the miniature lamp (1) goes out.
Lamp goes out : OK Adjustment is completed.
Lamp remains on : NG Repeat adjustment operation
outline under paragraph 3.
Excessive force is exerted on
linkage by piston (8) within the
valve assembly.
Note:
Adjustment can also be made by means of nuts (9) and
