photo made me check. It actuall does say off and on the valve. Still the lever

I miss the answer to the question? Is it closed in the counterclockwise

would be off with the lever perpendicular to the hose and valve. <u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Oh,
I should have added: Be careful trying to turn, esp. if it hasn't <br>
been 'exercised' in a while. The handle is fragile (maybe soak in a <br>
penetrant first). Also, the valve is spring-loaded, if you can push it <br>
in and out a few times may help loosen it.<br>
