  • The old safety valve - seen in the first photo already expanded - is screwed on the pump. It is replaced by a combination of safety valve and pressure balance valve. The diaphragm valve dampens the shocks of the pump, making the flow of water quieter and quieter.

Step 9

  • Remove the two hoses from the valve. For the thicker hose you have to squeeze the hose clamp with pliers, push it away and you can pull off the hose.
  • With the thinner pressure hose above you have to pull out first a clamp, then the hose comes out easily. There may be a gasket on the hose or it may stick in the valve.

Sehr gute Anleitung.

Den Deckel abzunehmen fand ich nicht notwendig.

Sehr hilfreich die Ersatzteil Bezugsquellen.

Maschine ist jetzt um einiges leiser.

Danke

Gern geschehen. Stimmt, bei dieser Reparatur muss der Deckel nicht unbedingt ab, liegt halt an der Logik dieser aufeinander aufbauenden Anleitungen.
