==Operation==
==Operation==
To close the valve, align the handle. perpendicularly to the body of the valve. Push the handle against the body of the valve, giving it a 1/4 turn clockwise. When the handle will turn no further, it is aligned with the valve body and the valve is closed. As you turned the handle, slots in the handle rode up the guides in the body. The slots were stopped at the top of the guides when the valve reached the closed position. The spring in the handle tightened the valve closed, and now keeps the handle in place until you choose to move it.
