Exactly!By initial appearance's your new valve is installed backwards....
Yes sir!THE new valve is functionally the opposite of old valve in every respect...
This appears to be same (new) valve you have that is on my DUERR splitter.... Do you happen to have a part number off valve?

Yes sir the ram directions are correct now removing and replacing the valve like the valve on your Duerr splitter.
My problem now is; the old valve handle may have wrong shape to complete the cycle.
Don't understand that message .... What do you mean by wrong shape.... Pictures would help.....
