I am having a hard time figuring out this new waterer. I see many threads that suggest replacing the valve. Ok, great, but how?
I have searched utube, and all I can find are the videos from different hatcheries showing how to set it up.
I can obviously hook it up to a garden hose and have it suspended, but where are the cliff notes on makeing it actually work?
I am a visual learner. If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
Here is what I have:

I am having the overflowing problem with it. Yes I have fiddled with the levels, only to result in the same problem.
I am heading to store today to purchase this new valve that seems to be a common problem with this waterer.

And the tool to install it:

My question is how do I do it?
What part of the tool above do I use and where do I use it?

I can't find any videos on how this is done.
Also if you look at this pic below, could you tell me how this replacement valve would fit?

Take it to the feed store that sells 'em. They'll fix it for you.
 
I ordered it through amazon. That's ok, just to give an update I went to auto zone, bought the items above. Then I decided to take a lunch break from all my hard work!(ha!)
I was in Whataburger, had all the parts out trying to figure it out.
I heard laughing from a nearby table, and looked to see a older gentleman laughing at me.
I asked him if he was laughing at my confused look. He smiled, nodded his head. I said "do you know how this works?"
He of course said yes.
Then he did it for me!!
Yea!!
