    Hydraulic Manifold Valve Knob

    You asked about taking the knob off. that is what the video shows. After you get the valve out its just orings and backing rings. I replaced mine to learn that it was just 2 wornout and was cheaper in the end to replace the whole unit. which is a lot of fun . saved the old unit for parts.
