Lucca X58: Steam/Hot Water Valve Joystick Seal Inspection and Replacement

A steam/hot water wand that constantly drips or fails to open/close consistently often indicates a compromised joystick seal gasket. (Difficulty ☕☕☕)

Tools Needed:
- 17mm crescent wrench x 2
- 17mm deep socket and ratcheting wrench
- Philips head screw driver
- Molykote lubricant

1. Start by removing the panels from the machine.

2. Use the 17mm crescent wrench to unscrew the brass compression fitting from the hot water or steam assembly inside the machine. You may want to use another 17mm wrench to hold it in place while you unscrew.

3. Use the 17mm deep socket and ratcheting wrench to remove the extension adapter from the hot water or steam arm. Use one hand to steady the assembly so that it cannot spin.

4. Use the 17mm deep socket and ratcheting wrench again to remove the last retaining nut from the hot water or steam arm. You can now pull the hot water/steam arm free from the machine.

5. Use the 22mm wrench to remove the joystick cap from the steam/hot water assembly.



7. Follow these instructions in reverse to reassemble the hot water/steam arm assembly and re-install it into the machine.
