unloader orientation

Recommended Posts

My old unloader (blue spring YU831) finally went out after 4 years so I ordered a new one. They have evidently changed the design since my last one. The new one is smaller and the ports are in different places. The "IN" port is now on the bottom under the spring instead of horizontally inline and opposite of the "OUT" port.

My question is:

Can I mount the unloader with the spring horizontal so I don't have to use more plumbing than neccessary?

Thanks,

just be careful of "suspended weight" on the fittings,

and the "length of the lever"..

Using a forged steel "hex nipple" is substantially beefier to the "suspended weight".

Don't cut corners on abuseability,

NEVERY use brass fittings foe suspended weight like an unloader.

and you don't have to worry about reliability. Eh?

Your local service center is "supposed to" be able to answer these questions for you.
