Jandy JVA 2444 Pro Series Installation And Operation Manual - Section 6. Maintenance
Section 6. Maintenance
6.1 Actuator
The JVA has three (3) seals which should be lubricated
once a year. One o-ring is located on the bottom of the
actuator where the plastic shaft exits the housing and
two (2) O-rings located in the top cover near where the
shaft exits the top of the housing. Use the following
steps to lubricate the seals:
1.
Turn OFF power to the actuator.
2.
Remove the locking knob and handle
(see Figure 13).

3.
Spread a small amount of Jandy Pro Series
Lube or other silicone base lubricant around the
actuator shaft just above the lock out ring (see
Figure 13).
4.
Reinstall handle and locking knob. Only tighten
knob one (1) turn.
5.
Push down on the locking knob to force the
actuator shaft into manual.
6.
Wipe a small amount of lubricant around the
actuator shaft where it protrudes from the
bottom of the actuator.

6.2 Valve
NOTE

Never Lube
®
Valves and non-positive seal valves.
Never Lube Valves and non-positive seal valves can
be identified by the absence of a grease cap. Never
Lube Valves can also be identified by the name
"Never Lube" on the handle.
Since the actuator rotates the valve diverter which
redirects the flow of water, it is imperative that the seals
and the O-rings within the valve body be lubricated
often (at least every
three (3) months
). Use the
following procedure to lubricate the valve diverter seals:
1.
Turn off all pool/spa equipment.
2.
Rotate valve handle so the OFF on the handle is
over the word GREASE on the valve body.
3.
Unscrew (counterclockwise) and remove the
black cap of the grease fitting.
4.
Fill cap with lubricant (Jandy Lube).
5.
Replace cap on fitting and turn in (clockwise)
until all of the lubricant has been forced into the
valve.
6.
Use manual operation to move the handle from
side to side to spread the lubricant across the
seal.
7.
Reset the valve handle to its original position
and start the equipment.
Once a year the valve should be disassembled and
the O-ring and valve body inspected for damage.
Thoroughly lubricate the square seal and the O-ring.
Reassemble the valve.
