23、 rings (or both lugs and rings, if necessary) shall be provided to prevent abrasion of vital parts when the nozzle is dragged. The wall of the nozzle body .shall be not less than 3/16 inch thick. After heat treatment and completion of all machiningi;operations, the body shall be suc- cessively anodi
24、zed, impregnated, and then treated with solid-film lubricant on the threated surfaces; all of these treatments being performed in accordance With 3.3.2. 3.7.2 Valve. The nozzle valve shall be designed and constructed to shut off the fuel flow within not more than 1.5 second after release of the oper
25、ating lever and without surge pressure in excess of 50 psi, The valve closing time shall be fixed by design; i.e., no adjustable device is permitted, “he valve stem shall be furnished with an adjustable packing gland or a readily replace- able O-ring seal or seals to prevent leakage. 3.7.3 Handle an
26、d age-rating lever. The nozzle shall be equipped with a handle securely attached to the nozzle body in *he general configuration shown in Figure 1. The handle shall be readily removable and replaceable by means of ordinary tools, The handle shall include a 3/4-inch diameter lifting eye in the genera
27、l location shown in Figure 1; this eye shall be an integral part of the handle and shall not protrude beyond the main contour of the handle. The handle shall be equipped with an operating lever that actuates the nozzle valve; release of the lever shall cause closure -f the valve. The handle shul fun
28、c- tion a8 a lever guard and shall enclose the lever completely in such a manner as to protect the lever from damage when the nozzle is dropped. The handle shall not restrict or interfere with free motion of the lever in its normal plane of motion; no notches or any other locking-or arresting device
