My guess is that you can't. The same thing happened to me when I tried it on an older system and nothing worked
The Toro 53707 valve has a "slip" fitting, designed for solvent-pumped systems Joints made of PVC are welded. Because the Toro 53708 valves have threaded fittings, they can only be threaded into conventional (NPT) threaded pipe. This means they cannot be directly interchanged. Depending on whether you have the appropriate adaptors and how much space you have (and how long the tubing/pipe is) you can substitute one for the other, but doing so is going to be a significant task. If it has to do with simple substitution, one for the other, there is no answer. Hope it works out for you. It's Mike or
In fact, yes. An internal threaded diameter of 1 inch NPT is provided on the valve. The fitting can accept hose barbs of 1 in NPT for poly pipe or INPVC couplings of 1 in NPT
As a result). I just want to say that the valves are great.

There will be no more reviews from me. There are times when I have an issue with a product, and I get some stupid email telling me my review did not follow the guidelines, so it cannot be accepted, and I can not resubmit it. That's a load of BS, and you can stuff your review process down your throat.
combed through an old Richdel 204A valve that had gone bad and found an old valve that had gone bad. As part of its acquisition of this brand, Irritrol acquired this. It is no longer possible to buy the same product directly so I searched for alternatives. There appears to be such a machine as the Irritrol 2400 or this Toro 53708 or something similar. Leaving the guts in the body, I returned the body to the animal. During the overhaul, I installed a new diaphragm support ring, diaphragm, spring, bonnet, and driver. It appears that the Jar top ring is threaded correctly, but its thickness is greater than the Richdel Jar top ring, so the new ring won't screw down securely enough so the bonnet is compressed Use the old top ring from the jar to fix this problem. I had a small crack in mine which caused my water to leak. Eventually, I cut the bottom of the Toro ring off with a hacksaw to match the one on the Richdel radio, Spacers might have been a better choice, but I don't think that would have been as efficient. Here is a step-by-step guide I hope can help others.
There were at least 25 years between this valve and the one it replaces. There's still some use for the old one. There was a problem with it not shutting off when the next zone came on, so there were two zones running simultaneously. I was impressed with how long it worked and how well it was built. It is still working on five other 25 year old Toro valves as well. Artesian well water is not as clean as city water, so it is not wish I had the female versions of these, but I was able to use a short pipe to get the job done.
The home we have in Albuquerque's north valley has about a half of an acre Landscaped area of one acre There are shrubs in beds with bark ships and colorful ornamental rock gravel for much of the landscaping. I have a real problem watering these beds by hand The fact that we like to travel makes it even more appealing. There is a drip system in the shrub beds, but my wife and I would really like automatic irrigation. These Toro electric valves were the basis for two systems I constructed The irrigation timer controls each of them. "Death in the garden" is now far behind us, and we can visit other places without fear of losing our treasure. As of right now, the valves seem to be working A few will be installed this year, while others will be installed several years ago. The system is flawless. A manual valve that can be turned on by rotating the top is a perfect way for us to check for any problems, clogged emitters included. I recommend these valves! We have 17 of them in service, and we are very pleased with them.
The sprinkler system is working again. As a result of the torn diaphragm, the old Toro jar top valve could not be found anywhere in order to receive a replacement. If that had been replaced, it would have been much easier. The project was a little challenging, but it turned out fine after I cut some PVC and went to the hardware store to get the right connectors.
I'll get you some greased wire nuts, I'll cut the wires, I'll replace the top guts, and I'll There you go, you're.
Simply remove the old tops and screw the new ones on it works as well as before. In some situations, such as when you are installing a new system or replacing an entire valve assembly, I would suggest a valve that has more than one screw to hold it together, as jar lids can sometimes.
Easy to install, easy to wire, and easy to maintain are just a few of the Toro valves' benefits. I have found that they work!.
