Low Point Drtain Handles

[bdwillie]

Hello all!

When I pulled the hook up panel for the water to do a repair, the little blue handles for the low point drains of course had to come off to pull the panel forward. The valves they are on seem to be stationary or plumbed in place. Repair complete, panel put back in place, but the little blue handles want to push the valve back instead of slipping on the stem. There seems to be no way to hold these valves to press the handles back on. I ended up CAREFULLY running a wooden dowel up the drain hoses to try to hold them enough to get the handles on. This kinda worked, at least they are on enough to work.

Anyone got a trick for this? Or is it so obvious that I can't see it.


Thanks Guys!!

I found the same thing. I just pushed them in place then hit them with a sharp rap of a screwdriver handle to set them. Been in place for almost 3 years now.
