1. These values also apply to the 657‐4 actuator construction.
2. Actuator travel may be less than the value listed after connecting the actuator to the valve.
3. Maximum travel for 657‐4 is 102 mm (4 inches).
4. Normal operating diaphragm pressure must not exceed maximum diaphragm casing pressure and must not produce a force on the actuator stem greater than the maximum allowable out
put thrust or the maximum allowable valve stem load. Contact your Emerson Process Management sales office with questions concerning maximum allowable valve stem load.
5. This maximum casing pressure is not to be used for normal operating pressure. Its purpose is to allow for typical regulator supply settings and/or relief valve tolerances.
Description
The 657 actuator (figure 1) and the 657‐4 actuator are direct‐acting, spring‐opposed diaphragm actuators. They
provide automatic operation of control valve body assemblies. The 657 actuator offers 76 mm (3 inches) maximum
actuator travel. The 657‐4 actuator provides 102 mm (4 inches) maximum actuator travel. Both actuators position the
valve plug in response to varying pneumatic loading pressure on the actuator diaphragm. Figure 2 shows the
operation of these actuators.
A 657 or 657‐4 actuator can be equipped with either a top‐mounted or a side‐mounted handwheel assembly. A
top‐mounted handwheel assembly is used as an adjustable up travel stop to limit actuator travel in the up direction
(see figure 2). A side‐mounted handwheel assembly is usually used as an auxiliary manual actuator. Adjustable
casing‐mounted up or down travel stops are also available for this actuator.
2
Note
If repeated or daily manual operation is expected, the actuator should be equipped with a side‐mounted handwheel rather than a
casing‐mounted travel stop or top‐mounted handwheel.
The side‐mounted handwheel is designed for more frequent use as a manual operator.

D Actuator Mounting: If the actuator is shipped separately or the actuator has been removed from the valve, it is
necessary to mount the actuator on the valve before placing the valve in the pipeline. Refer to the actuator
mounting procedures before placing the valve in service. You may perform the Bench Set Spring Adjustment
procedures in this section to confirm that the adjustment has not changed since it was shipped from the factory.
D Positioner: If a positioner is installed, or is to be installed on the actuator, refer to the positioner instruction manual
for installation. During the adjustment procedures, it will be necessary to provide a temporary loading pressure to
the actuator diaphragm.
Mounting the Actuator on the Valve

The 657 actuator spring loading pushes the actuator stem up towards the actuator diaphragm (see figure 2). This
spring action moves the stem away from the valve while installing the actuator.
CAUTION
If the valve stem is allowed to remain in the up position (towards the actuator) during mounting, it can interfere with the
actuator mounting, possibly damage valve stem threads or bend the valve stem. Be sure the valve stem is pushed down
(into the valve body), away from the actuator while mounting.
Provide a temporary method of applying diaphragm loading pressure to the diaphragm to extend the actuator stem
during bench set spring adjustments.
5
1. Provide a vise or some other method of supporting the valve and the weight of the actuator during assembly. For
direct or reverse acting valves, push the valve stem down away from the actuator while mounting the actuator.
2. Screw the stem locknuts all the way onto the valve stem. With the concave side of the travel indicator disk (key 14)
facing the valve, install the travel indicator disk on the valve stem. (Note: The travel indicator disk is not used with
size 87 actuators.)
3. Lift or hoist the actuator onto the valve bonnet:
a. For size 87 actuators, insert the cap screws and tighten the hex nuts, securing the actuator to the bonnet.
b. For all other size actuators, screw the yoke locknut onto the valve bonnet and tighten the locknut. (Note: On
small size actuators, it may be necessary to remove the indicator disk and re‐install it while lowering the actuator
on to the valve because the disk will not go through the actuator yoke opening.)
4. Do not connect the actuator stem to the valve stem at this time. Whenever the actuator is installed on the valve, it
is recommended to perform the Bench Set Spring Adjustment procedure to verify that the actuator is still adjusted
correctly.
Discussion of Bench Set

The bench set pressure range is used to adjust the initial compression of the actuator spring with the valve‐actuator
assembly “on the bench.” The correct initial compression is important for the proper functioning of the valve‐actuator
assembly when it is put into service and the proper actuator diaphragm operating pressure is applied.
The bench set range is established with the assumption that there is no packing friction. When attempting to adjust
the spring in the field, it is very difficult to ensure that there is no friction being applied by “loose” packing.
Accurate adjustment to the bench set range can be made during the actuator mounting process by making the
adjustment before the actuator is connected to the valve (see the Spring Verification Procedure).
If you are attempting to adjust the bench set range after the actuator is connected to the valve and the packing
tightened, you must take friction into account. Make the spring adjustment such that full actuator travel occurs at the
bench set range (a) plus the friction force divided by the effective diaphragm area with increasing diaphragm pressure
or (b) minus the friction force divided by the effective diaphragm area with decreasing diaphragm pressure.
For an assembled valve‐actuator assembly, the valve friction may be determined by following the procedure described
below:
1. Install a pressure gauge in the actuator loading pressure line that connects to the actuator diaphragm casing.
Note
Steps 2 and 4 require that you read and record the pressure shown on the pressure gauge.
2. Increase the actuator diaphragm pressure and read the diaphragm pressure as the actuator reaches its mid‐travel
position.
3. Increase the actuator diaphragm pressure until the actuator is at a travel position greater than its mid‐travel
position.
4. Decrease the actuator diaphragm pressure and read the diaphragm pressure as the actuator reaches its mid‐travel
position.
The difference between the two diaphragm pressure readings is the change in the diaphragm pressure required to
overcome the friction forces in the two directions of travel.
6
5. Calculate the actual friction force:
Friction Difference Effective

Force, = 0.5 in pressure diaphragm area,
pounds readings, psig inches2
Refer to table 1 for the effective diaphragm area.
When determining valve friction, you can make diaphragm pressure readings at a travel position other than mid‐travel
if you desire. If you take readings at zero or at the full travel position, take extra care to ensure that the readings are
taken when the travel just begins or just stops at the position selected.
It is difficult to rotate the spring adjustor (key 12, figure 6, 7, and 8) when the full actuator loading pressure is applied
to the actuator. Release the actuator loading pressure before adjusting. Then re‐apply loading pressure to check the
adjustment.
Spring Verification
Ensure that the actuator stem is at the top of its travel as shown in figure 4 and not connected to the valve. (Note:
Some spring compression is required to move the diaphragm to the top of its travel.) The steps provided are the same
for direct or reverse acting valves.
WARNING
When moving the actuator stem with diaphragm loading pressure, use caution to keep hands and tools out of the actuator
stem travel path. Personal injury and/or property damage is possible if something is caught between the actuator stem and
other control valve assembly parts.
Also, provide a certified pressure gauge suitable to accurately read the diaphragm pressure from 0 psig through the
upper bench set pressure marked on the nameplate. Apply loading pressure to the diaphragm.
CAUTION
Stroke the actuator a few times to ensure that the pressure gauge is working correctly, and that the actuator is functioning
properly. To prevent product damage, it is important to be sure that the actuator assembly is not binding or producing any
loading friction on the actuator stem movement.
1. If not already accomplished, provide a temporary means of applying an adjustable loading pressure to the actuator
during bench set adjustments.
2. Set the diaphragm loading pressure at 0 psig. Then, slowly raise the pressure from 0 psig towards the lower bench
set pressure while checking for the first movement of the actuator stem. The actuator stem should show
movement at the lower bench set pressure. If movement occurs before or after the lower pressure is reached,
adjust the spring adjuster (see figure 4) into or out of the yoke until the actuator stem's movement is first detected
at the lower bench set pressure.
3. Be sure the spring adjuster is adjusted to meet the requirements of step 2 above.
4. Apply the upper bench set loading pressure to the diaphragm. This pressure extends the actuator stem down
towards the valve. (Note: the actuator stem may slide over the valve stem as shown in figure 4.) At the end of the
actuator stem, use a marker or a piece of tape to mark the valve stem (see figure 4). (Note: If the actuator stem
does not pass over the valve stem, provide a method to mark this point of stem travel.)
7
5. Slowly decrease the diaphragm loading pressure until the lower bench set pressure is applied. Measure the distance
between the marker or tape on the valve stem to the end of the actuator stem. The distance should match the
travel span shown on the travel indicator scale (key 18). If the span of travel is correct, bench set is complete.
Proceed to the Installing the Stem Connector Assembly subsection.
6. If the travel span is not correct, a wrong or damaged spring has been installed in the actuator. To obtain the correct
spring sizing information, refer to Catalog 14, Actuator Sizing and Sample Calculation sections to determine the
correct spring selection for your application. Or, contact your Emerson Process Management sales office for
assistance. After replacing the spring, repeat the steps above.
Installing the Stem Connector Assembly

When installing the stem connector assembly (key 26), the actuator and valve stem threads should engage the
threads of the stem connector by the distance of the diameter of the stem.
Note
Replacement stem connectors are an assembly of two stem connector halves, cap screws, and a spacer between the connector
halves. Remove the spacer and discard, if present, before clamping the actuator and valve stems together.
1. If necessary, push the valve stem down so that it is touching the seat ring on direct acting valves. For reverse acting
valves, push the stem down to the open position.
If necessary, screw the valve stem locknuts down, away from the connector location. For all actuators except size 87,
ensure that the travel indicator disk (key 14) is located on top of the locknuts.
2. Slowly increase the diaphragm pressure to the upper bench set pressure. This should be the same pressure used in
the bench set steps, and it is marked on the nameplate.
3. Place the stem connector half with the threaded holes, approximately half way between the actuator and valve
stems. Refer to figures 6, 7, and 8 to help locate the connector position.
Be sure that the actuator and valve stem threads are engaging the threads of the stem connector by the distance of
one diameter of the stem.
CAUTION
Incomplete engagement of either the valve stem or actuator stem in the stem connector can result in stripped threads or
improper operation. Be sure that the length of each stem clamped in the stem connector is equal to or greater than one
diameter of that stem. Damage to threads on either stem or in the stem connector can cause the parts to be replaced
prematurely.
4. Install the other half of the stem connector and insert the cap screws and tighten them. If installing a positioner,
also attach the feedback bracket at the same time.
5. Screw the valve stem locknuts up until the indicator disk contacts the bottom of the stem connector, or for size 87
actuators, the stem connector. Do not overtighten the locknuts.
6. Slowly decrease and then increase pressure several times stroking the valve from the lower bench set pressure to
the upper pressure.
Be sure that the valve is in closed position (up or down, depending on valve action). Loosen the screws on the travel
scale, and align it with the travel indicator disk or stem connector. Stroke the valve full travel to ensure that the travel
8
matches the valve travel on the travel indicator plate. If valve travel is not correct, repeat the stem connector
procedure.

Note
For push‐down‐to‐close valves, the valve plug seat is the limit for downward travel and the actuator up‐stop is the limit for upward
(away from the valve) movement. For push‐down‐to‐open valves, the actuator down stop is the limit for downward movement,
and the valve seat is the limit for upward (away from the valve) movement.
Deadband Measurement
Deadband is caused by packing friction, unbalanced forces, and other factors in the control valve assembly. Deadband
is the range a measured signal can vary without initiating a response from the actuator (see figure 5). Each actuator
spring has a fixed spring rate (force). You have verified that the right spring was installed in the actuator by completing
the Bench Set Spring Adjustment steps.
Deadband is one factor that affects the control valve assembly operation during automatic loop control. The control
loop tolerance for deadband varies widely depending on the loop response. Some common symptoms of the
deadband being too wide are no movement, a “jump” movement, or oscillating movements of the actuator during
automatic loop control. The following steps are provided to determine the span of deadband. The percent of
deadband is helpful in troubleshooting problems with the process control loop.
1. Start at a pressure near the lower bench set pressure, slowly increase pressure until the valve is approximately at
mid‐travel. Note this pressure reading.
2. Slowly decrease pressure until movement of the valve stem is detected, and note this pressure.
3. The difference between these two pressures is deadband, in psi.
4. Calculate the percent of deadband by:
Deadband, psi
Deadband = —————————————— = nn%
Bench Set Span, psi
9
Loading Connection
The loading pressure connections are made at the factory if the valve, actuator, and positioner come as a unit. Keep
the length of tubing or piping as short as possible to avoid transmission lag in the control signal. If a volume booster,
valve positioner or other accessory is used, be sure that it is properly connected to the actuator. Refer to the positioner
instruction manual or other manuals as necessary.
For actuators shipped separately or whenever the actuator pressure connections are installed, use the following steps:
1. Connect the loading pressure piping to the NPT internal connection in the top of the diaphragm casing.
2. For sizes 70 and 87 actuators, if necessary, remove the 1/4 NPT bushing if a 1/2 NPT internal connection is needed
to increase connection size. The connection can be made with either piping or tubing.
3. Cycle the actuator several times to be sure that the valve stem travel is correct when the correct pressure ranges
are applied to the diaphragm.
WARNING
If valve stem travel appears to be incorrect, refer to the Bench Set Spring Adjustment procedures at the beginning of this
section. To avoid personal injury or product damage, do not place the valve into service if it is not reacting correctly to
diaphragm loading pressure changes.
Maintenance
Actuator parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced when necessary. The frequency of
inspection and replacement depends on the severity of service conditions.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury or property damage from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before performing
any maintenance operations:
D Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
D Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenance operations to avoid personal
injury.
D Disconnect any operating lines providing air pressure, electric power, or a control signal to the actuator. Be sure the
actuator cannot suddenly open or close the valve.
D Use bypass valves or completely shut off the process to isolate the valve from process pressure. Relieve process pressure
from both sides of the valve. Drain the process media from both sides of the valve.
D Vent the power actuator loading pressure and relieve any actuator spring precompression.
D Use lock‐out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
D The valve packing box may contain process fluids that are pressurized, even when the valve has been removed from the
pipeline. Process fluids may spray out under pressure when removing the packing hardware or packing rings, or when
loosening the packing box pipe plug.
D Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.

Actuator Maintenance
This procedure describes how the actuator can be completely disassembled and assembled. When inspection or
repairs are required, disassemble only those parts necessary to accomplish the job; then, start the assembly at the
appropriate step.
Key numbers refer to figures 6, 7, or 8 unless otherwise indicated. Figure 6 shows the sizes 30 through 60 actuators,
figure 7 illustrates the sizes 70 actuator, and figure 8 shows the size 87 actuator.
Actuator Disassembly
1. Bypass the control valve. Reduce the loading pressure to atmospheric, and remove the tubing or piping from the
upper diaphragm casing (key 1).
WARNING
To avoid personal injury from the precompressed spring force thrusting the upper diaphragm casing (key 1) away from the
actuator, relieve spring compression (step 2, below), and carefully remove casing cap screws (key 22) (step 4, below).
2. Thread the spring adjuster (key 12) out of the yoke (key 9) until all spring compression is relieved.
3. If required, remove the actuator from the valve body by separating the stem connector (key 26) and removing the
yoke locknut or, for the size 87 actuator, the stud bolt nuts. Separate the stem connector by loosening the stem
nuts (keys 15 and 16) and unscrewing the two cap screws.
4. Remove the diaphragm casing cap screws and nuts (keys 22 and 23), then lift off the upper diaphragm casing (key
1).
5. Remove the actuator diaphragm (key 2).
6. Remove the diaphragm plate, actuator stem, and cap screw (keys 4, 10 and 3) as an assembly. This assembly can be
broken down further, if required, by removing the cap screw (key 3).
7. Remove the actuator spring (key 6) and the spring seat (key 11).
8. If required, remove the lower diaphragm casing (key 5) from the yoke (key 9) by loosening the cap screws (key 8)
that hold it in place.
9. If required, remove the spring adjuster (key 12) by unscrewing it from the yoke (key 9).
Actuator Assembly
1. Coat the threads and the spring seat bearing surface of the spring adjuster (key 12) with lithium grease (key 241),
and thread the spring adjuster into the yoke (key 9). Place the spring seat (key 11) in the yoke on the spring adjuster
and turn the spring adjuster to ensure that threads are properly engaged.
2. Position the lower diaphragm casing (key 5) on the yoke (key 9), and fasten the parts together by installing and
evenly tightening the cap screws (key 8).
3. Set the actuator spring (key 6) squarely onto the spring seat (key 11).
4. If the diaphragm plate and actuator stem (keys 4 and 10) are separate, fasten them together using the cap screw
and washer (keys 3 and 25). Coat the cap screw threads with lithium grease (key 241). Tighten the cap screw (key 3)
to 41 NSm (30 lbfSft) torque for size 30 actuators, 54 NSm (40 lbfSft) torque for size 34 and 40 actuators, or 149
NSm (110 lbfSft) torque for size 45 to 87 actuators. Slide the actuator stem and diaphragm plate (keys 10 and 4)
into the yoke (key 9) so that the actuator spring (key 6) fits squarely between the diaphragm plate and the spring
seat (key 11). Then slide the diaphragm rod through the spring adjuster (key 12).
5. Place the diaphragm (key 2) pattern‐side up on the diaphragm plate (key 4). Align the holes in the diaphragm and
the lower diaphragm casing (key 5).
11
6. Position the upper diaphragm casing (key 1) on the diaphragm (key 2) and align the holes.
Note
When you replace actuator diaphragms in the field, take care to ensure the diaphragm casing bolts are tightened to the proper
load to prevent leakage, but not crush the material. Perform the following tightening sequence with a manual torque wrench for
size 30‐70 and 87 actuators.
CAUTION
Over‐tightening the diaphragm casing cap screws and nuts (keys 22 and 23) can damage the diaphragm. Do not exceed 27
NSm (20 lbfSft) torque.
Note
Do not use lubricant on these bolts and nuts. Fasteners must be clean and dry.
7. Insert the cap screws (key 22), and tighten the hex nuts (key 23) in the following manner. The first four hex nuts
tightened should be diametrically opposed and 90 degrees apart. Tighten these four hex nuts to 13 NSm (10 lbfSft).
8. Tighten the remaining hex nuts in a clockwise, criss‐cross pattern to 13 NSm (10 lbfSft).
9. Repeat this procedure by tightening four hex nuts, diametrically opposed and 90 degrees apart, to a torque of 27
NSm (20 lbfSft).
11. After the last hex nut is tightened to 27 NSm (20 lbfSft), all of the hex nuts should be tightened again to 27 NSm
(20 lbfSft) in a circular pattern around the bolt circle.
12. Once completed, no more tightening is recommended.
13. Mount the actuator on the valve by following the procedures in the Installation section.
Top‐Mounted Handwheel Assembly

A top‐mounted handwheel assembly (figures 9 and 10) is usually used as an adjustable casing‐mounted up travel stop
to limit full retraction of the actuator stem. Turning the handwheel clockwise moves the the handwheel stem (key
133, figures 9 and 10) down, compressing the spring.
Instructions are given below for complete disassembly and assembly of the top‐mounted handwheel assembly.
Perform the disassembly only as far as necessary to accomplish the required maintenance; then, begin the assembly at
the appropriate step.
Key numbers refer to figure 9 (sizes 30 through 60) and figure 10 (sizes 70 and 87), unless otherwise indicated.
Disassembly for Top‐Mounted Handwheel

1. Turn the handwheel (key 51) counter‐clockwise so that the handwheel assembly is not causing any spring
compression.
2. Bypass the control valve, reduce loading pressure to atmospheric, and remove the tubing or piping from the upper
handjack body (key 142, figures 9 or 10).
12
WARNING
actuator, thread the spring adjuster (key 12) out of the yoke until all spring compression is relieved, then carefully remove
casing cap screws (key 22).
3. Remove the diaphragm casing cap screws and nuts (keys 22 and 23, figures 6, 7, or 8), and lift off the upper
diaphragm casing and handwheel assembly.
4. If necessary, the handwheel assembly can be separated from the diaphragm casing by removing the cap screws
(key 141). This may be necessary to replace the O‐ring (key 139), or for ease of handling.
5. Loosen the travel stop locknut (key 137), and turn the handwheel (key 51) counter‐clockwise. Remove the cotter
pin and stop nut (keys 247 and 54), then lift off the handwheel.
6. Unscrew the travel stop locknut (key 137) from the handwheel stem (key 133), and turn the stem out of the
bottom of the body (key 142). A screwdriver slot is provided on the top of the stem for this purpose.
7. Replace the O‐ring (key 138) in the body (key 142).
8. For a handwheel assembly used on sizes 30 through 60 actuators, complete the disassembly by driving out the
groove pin (key 140, figure 9) and sliding the pusher plate (key 135, figure 9) off the stem.
For a handwheel assembly used on a sizes 70 or 87 actuator, complete the disassembly by unscrewing the retaining
screw (key 174, figure 10) and removing the thrust bearing and pusher plate (keys 175 and 135, figure 10). Because
the retaining screw (key 174) has left‐hand threads, turn clockwise to loosen.
Assembly for Top‐Mounted Handwheel

1. For a handwheel assembly used on sizes 30 through 60 actuators, coat the end of the handwheel stem (key 133,
figure 9) with anti‐seize lubricant (key 244). Slide the pusher plate (key 135, figure 9), onto the stem, and drive in
the groove pin (key 140, figure 9) to lock the pieces together.
For a handwheel assembly used on a sizes 70 or 87 actuator, pack the thrust bearing (key 175, figure 10) with
anti‐seize lubricant (key 244). Place the thrust bearing in the pusher plate (key 135, figure 10), slide the two parts onto
the handwheel stem (key 133). Coat the retaining screw threads with thread locking sealant (key 242). Insert and
tighten the retaining screw (key 174, figure 10).
2. Coat the O‐ring (key 138) with lithium grease (key 241), and insert the O‐ring in the body (key 142).
3. Coat the threads of the handwheel stem (key 133) with anti‐seize lubricant (key 244). Screw the stem into the body
(key 142).
4. Thread the travel stop locknut (key 137) onto the handwheel stem (key 133).
5. Place the handwheel (key 51), and the stop nut (key 54) on the handwheel stem (key 133). Tighten the hex nut to
fasten the parts together. Secure the nut with the cotter pin (key 247).
6. If the body (key 142) was separated from the upper diaphragm casing (key 1, figures 6, 7, or 8), lubricate the O‐ring
(key 139) with lithium grease (key 241), and place the O‐ring in the body. Align the holes in the diaphragm casing
and the body, insert the cap screws (key 141), and tighten them evenly following a crisscross pattern to ensure a
proper seal.
7. Position the upper diaphragm casing (key 1) on the diaphragm (key 2) and align the holes.

actuators, or with the machine screws (key 156) for handwheel assemblies on sizes 34 and 40 actuators.
7. If the handwheel assembly was removed from the yoke (key 9, figures 6, 7, or 8), remount the handjack assembly
to the yoke using the dowel pins for alignment. Position the U‐bolts (keys 166 and 143) on the yoke, and
hand‐tighten the hex nuts (keys 170 and 147) to hold the handwheel assembly in position. Cap screws (key 163)
should be tight against the yoke legs to provide stability. Tighten nuts (key 144). Finish tightening the U‐bolt nuts
to 163 NSm [120 lbfSft] (key 170) and 41 NSm [30 lbfSft] (key 147). Be sure the handwheel assembly remains flat
against the mounting pad and perpendicular to the yoke.
8. Position the levers (key 146) as shown in figure 11 or 12. Insert the lever pivot pin (key 153), and snap the retaining
ring (key 154) onto the lever pivot pin.
Side‐Mounted Handwheel for Sizes 70 and 87 Actuators

A side‐mounted handwheel assembly (figure 13) is normally used as a manual actuator for sizes 70 and 87 actuators.
Turning the handwheel counter‐clockwise past the neutral position opens the valve body. A pair of sleeves (keys 34
and 46, figure 13) operates the valve by moving the valve stem.
Instructions are given below for complete disassembly and assembly. Perform the disassembly only as far as necessary
to accomplish the required maintenance; and then begin the assembly at the appropriate step.
Key numbers refer to figures 7 or 8, and 11.

(key 12), using a suitable tool in the open neck of the flange. Take out the gear and two needle bearings (key 42),
one on each side of the gear.
10. Remove the spring adjuster (key 12) from the bearing retainer flange (key 39). If desired, the worm shaft (key 45)
and associated parts can be disassembled to replace or lubricate them. To do so, first remove the stop nut (key 54)
and the handwheel (key 51). Do not lose the small ball (key 55) and spring (key 56).
11. Loosen the two set screws (key 41), and unscrew the front and back retainers (keys 48 and 49). The ball bearings
(key 50) will come out with the retainers. Remove the worm shaft (key 45).
Assembly for Side‐Mounted Handwheel (Size 70 & 87)

1. The front and back retainers (keys 48 and 49) each have a slot in their threads for a set screw (key 41). Pack the ball
bearings (key 50) with anti‐seize lubricant (key 244), and insert one ball bearing into the back retainer (key 49) as
shown in figure 13.
2. Thread the back retainer and ball bearing (keys 49 and 50) into the yoke (key 9). Align the slot in the bearing
retainer with the set screw hole in the yoke, insert the set screw (key 41), and tighten it.
3. Coat the worm shaft (key 45) threads with anti‐seize lubricant (key 244), and slide the shaft into the yoke so that
the end of the shaft fits snugly into the back retainer (key 49).
4. Insert the bearing into the front retainer (key 48), and thread the retainer and ball bearing into the yoke (key 9).
Align the slot in the retainer with the hole in the yoke, insert the set screw (key 41), and tighten it.
5. Put the spring and ball (keys 56 and 55) into the handwheel (key 51). Slide the handwheel onto the worm shaft (key
45). Thread the stop nut (key 54) onto the shaft.
6. Pack the two needle bearings (key 42) and coat the worm gear (key 44) threads with anti‐seize lubricant (key 244).
Insert the key (key 47), the bearings, and the gear into the yoke (key 9) as shown in figure 13.
7. Slots are cut into the threads of the bearing retainer flange (key 39). Thread the flange into the yoke (key 9) so that
the slots and the holes for the set screws (key 40) align. Insert the screws, and tighten them.
8. The lower sleeve (key 46) has milled slots in one end. Coat the sleeve threads with lithium grease (key 241), then
slide the end of the lower sleeve with the milled slots into the bearing retainer flange (key 39).
9. Turn the handwheel (key 51), and feed the sleeve through the gear so that the slot in the lower sleeve (key 46)
engages the key (key 47) in the yoke (key 9). Continue turning the handwheel until the lower sleeve protrudes 93.7
mm (3.69 inches) below the surface of the yoke. The pin in the side of the lower sleeve should line up with the
extension on the neutral indicator.
10. Slide the square end of the actuator stem (key 10) through the lower sleeve (key 46) so the stem contacts the
valve stem. Clamp both stems in the two halves of the stem connector (key 26). The stem connector should not be
closer than 3.2 mm (1/8 inches) to the lower sleeve when the actuator stem is in the retracted position. This
adjustment will provide approximately 3.2 mm (1/8 inches) of free travel of the lower sleeve in either direction for
manual operation. Fasten the stem connector halves together with the cap screws.
11. Pack the needle bearing and race (keys 37 and 38) with lithium grease (key 241), and slide the bearing onto the
