NOTE: The inlet check valve has a larger opening (1/4"-28,
flat-bottom seat) for the 1/8" inlet tubing; the outlet check

1/16" outlet tubing. The inlet check valve must be connected
at the larger opening in the pump head. See Figure 5-5.
If the piston and flushing seals have been removed, insert new
seals as described in Section 5.2.3, then continue with Section 5.2.5 to
replace the pump head.
