Directional Press Handle Is loose or Not Functioning Correctly

If you are experiencing issues with the directional valve handle on the X1, it is most likely due to the fact that the handle has become loose over time. The general repair process is as follows:

  1. Remove the press handle using a 3/32″ allen key (included in the X1 tool kit). There is a screw on top of the handle, and two small set screws on the sides. Be careful not to lose the spring that may fall out when removing the handle.
  2. Re-align the pin as in the image below, and re-assemble the press handle. Please refer to the video for proper assembly.
