Preparing the Stem Nut
The Accutronix MX has two (2) basic base designs:
• Torque-only base, designated by a “B” prefix
• Thrust-only base, designated by an “A” prefix
Type “B” Bases: Torque-only Applications
Standard B4/B4E Base
The standard MX actuator base is the B4 torque-only and includes a
mounting plate and steel torque nut, which may be machined to fit a
valve or gearbox.
A B4E torque nut can be provided and may be installed to allow for
extended stem acceptance.

Disassembly
1. Remove the retaining ring (B4 base) or spiral-wound ring (B4E base)
that retains the torque nut in the drive sleeve.
2. Remove the torque nut. If the torque nut is difficult to remove, insert a
suitable device into the drive sleeve through bore and gently tap it
loose from the handwheel end.
3. Machine the torque nut to suit the valve stem or gearbox input shaft
(see LMASS2326, MX Performance and Dimensions for maximum
stem capacity). Ensure sufficient clearance for a smooth, sliding fit.
Reassembly
1. Clean the torque nut thoroughly and lightly grease.
2. Replace the torque nut in the drive sleeve. Ensure the torque nut
meshes with the drive lugs.
3. Refit the retaining ring (B4 base) or spiral-wound ring (B4E base).
Optional B1 Base (not applicable for MX-85 or -140)
An optional torque base assembly may be added to allow for a greater
stem acceptance. This base is supplied with a fixed bore and key as
defined by ISO 5210.
Disassembly
No disassembly is required since the torque nut has been machined to
an international standard. Clean the bore and lightly grease.

Standard A1/A1E Base
The standard MX actuator thrust base is the A1 and may be bolted
directly to the actuator. The thrust base contains a bronze alloy thrust
nut that may be machined to suit the valve stem.
An A1E thrust nut can be provided and may be installed to reach
shorter stems.

Refer to the figure at left.
Disassembly of the main housing from the base may be
recommended to allow the base to remain on the valve if the actuator
must be removed for service.
Pilot removal
MX-05/10: Remove the screw and washer holding the valve pilot to the
thrust base and remove pilot.
MX-20/40: Turn counterclockwise (CCW) and remove.
Thrust bearing and nut removal
1. Remove the first set of thrust washers and bearing.
2. Remove stem nut.
NOTE: The thrust washers, bearing, and stem nut may be removed at the
same time. The second set of thrust washers and bearing do not have to
be removed.
3. Machine the stem nut to suit the valve stem. Ensure sufficient
clearance to avoid unnecessary wear and heating during operation.

Refer to the figure on page 7.
1. Clean the stem nut, washers, and bearings thoroughly.
2. Slide the second set of thrust washers and bearing in place if removed.
NOTE: Order of assembly for thrust washers and bearing must be as
follows: washer, thrust bearing, washer.
Pilot installation
MX-05/10: Slide pilot into thrust base assembly and secure with washer
and screw. Tighten fully.
MX-20/40: Place pilot into thrust base and turn clockwise (CW) until
pilot is tight.
Disassembly – Unit MX-85
Refer to the figure on page 9.
Disassembly of the main housing from the base may be
recommended to allow the base to remain on the valve if the actuator
must be removed for service.
Thrust base mounting plate removal
Remove the six socket head cap screws holding the valve mounting
plate to the thrust base housing and remove mounting plate.
Thrust bearing and nut removal
1. Remove the first set of thrust washers and bearing.
2. Remove stem nut.
NOTE: The thrust washers, bearing, and stem nut may be removed at the
same time. The second set of thrust washers and bearing do not have to
