Revise the Saeco Minuto support valve

Введение

Hot fresh water flows into the brewing unit through the support valve, it is heavily loaded. The seals should be replaced from time to time. It also happens that lime deposits clog the valve. The valve is easy to remove and revise.

Note: the pictures show a Saeco Odea and differ slightly. However, the valve is quite similar.

The support valve is closed with a cover with a bayonet lock. Using a flat screwdriver, turn the lid a few degrees counterclockwise and lift it out with a pair of pliers.
Check whether the inner parts (sliding piece, valve stem, and spring) can move freely and close tightly. Replace them if necessary.
