Abstract
This invention discloses a main start valve maintenance fixture and method, belonging to the field of maintenance fixture technology. It includes a sleeve, one end of which is used to fix a valve stem nut, and the other end is fitted with a stud head. A lever is fixed perpendicularly to the sleeve axis at the end of the sleeve near the stud head. A threaded hole is formed at a set distance between the sleeve and the lever, allowing a connecting piece to pass through and fix the valve stem. The lever is rotated to remove the nut, or the stud head can be used with a pneumatic or electric wrench to grind the valve core. This invention enables both valve stem replacement and valve core grinding of the main start valve, allowing for maintenance based on the damage condition of the main start valve, increasing applicability and reducing costs.
