Jeez Paul,

That valve is a snap to install, couple of hours only. The hard part is pushing the pipe with the rubber ring into the machined rebate (that you can clearly see in the photo).

The guy with the moustache is trying to figure out which bit to stick the delivery docket to and how he is going to get the cardboard box to hang together after it spends a week rolling around in the back of a freight truck.

Cheers,

Robin
