Default Hyperboost DV maintenance question >>>>

For people who have it, is there an easy way to take the valve apart for lubing ?

I tried un-screwing the top cap but that seems impossible! Is there a trick to do this?

TIA

Default I had a heck of a time getting my cap off also....

i tried sticking it in the freezer for 10 minutes. Took it out and it popped right off. Maybe cause I gave my hands a chance to rest...maybe cause making it colder did something...who knows. Hope it works for you.

Default It feels like it's seized / doesn't want to move ...

I wish I had one of those rubber bottle-cover openners!

Get a big toothed water-pump pliers.
