• Step 2: Remove the old Rod Spring and replace with the new Rod Spring, securing it between the Valve Assembly and Valve Rod/O-Ring parts.
• Step 3: Put your Sub-Slab Injector tool back together and test the tool out. If it is now spraying termiticide properly, the part replacement is complete.

Where to Use

The VT-618 Rod Spring is meant to be used to replace an old Rod Spring as part of the Valve assembly of the Versatool Valve B&G Sub Slab Injector. The B&G Sub Slab Injector is designed to inject termiticide under concrete slab around the home to treat for termites.

When to Use

Replace the Rod Spring when it has been damaged or you are experiencing a dip in spray injection quality. How often this part is changed depends on how often you use the sprayer. You may need to just change it once a year or even quarterly for heavy use sprayers.

Safety Information

Installing the B&G Rod Spring is safe to do when done so according to manual directions. Make sure to wear gloves when handling the B&G sprayer parts, as there may be residue from chemicals or buildup on the filter. Be sure to properly drain and clean the sprayer parts before performing maintenance. Keep small items like this check valve out of reach of pets and children.

Special Considerations

Along with the Rod spring, it would be wise to replace all the other small parts on the B&G Sub Slack Injector rather than just the one. Set a maintenance schedule for your Versatool Valve and change out all the parts in one shot to save time so your Versatool is back in good condition.
