How often should I clean the flush valve?

Troubleshooting
Valve not flushing properly
Ensure the pneumatic hose is securely connected to the flush button mechanism and the valve body. Check for any obstructions in the valve's water path.
Continuous leaking into the bowl
Verify that the valve seal is seated correctly and that there are no foreign particles trapped between the seal and the valve seat. Ensure the cistern is not overfilled.
Reduced flush is too weak or full flush is incomplete
Check the air pressure connection at the flush button. Ensure the button is not sticking and is allowing the pneumatic system to operate correctly. Inspect the valve mechanism for wear or damage.
