I have a hazy recollection that the lever is perpendicular to the fluid flow when the check valves are operating. Anyone have this information or a steer to where I could download the drawing? thanks Jim Bean RV-8 81110 MN ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:46:25 PM PST US From: Ed Godfrey Subject: Re: RV-List: Parking brake check valve Jim, If you are referring to the Matco parking brake valve, you can find the information at http://www.matcomfg.com/PARKINGBRAKEVALVEDUAL-idv-3579-8.html Ed Godfrey 40717 On 2/25/2013 3:29 PM, James Bean wrote: > > I have misplaced the drawing on the dual check valve used for a > parking brake on our RV's. > I have a hazy recollection that the lever is perpendicular to the > fluid flow when the check valves are operating. > Anyone have this information or a steer to where I could download the > drawing? > thanks > Jim Bean > RV-8 81110 MN > > ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:57:35 PM PST US From: "Ralph E.

I'll see if I can dig out the documentation.

I recall that it doesn't require a full 90* motion to open the valve. It's most likely either made by Matco or Grove.

I verified this by blowing through it while operating the lever. This orientation makes it easier to rig the cable, too. Make sure you have positive stops at both positions. Somebody I know didn't and the fire dept wound up opening his bleeder valves to get him off the taxiway so the jets could get by when he couldn't release the brakes.
