Mend Macdee DVE 0600 Toilet Cistern Fitted

How can I replace the seals in my Macdee DVE dual flush system?

My toilet cistern is fitted wit a Macdee DVE 0600 flushing system and continually overflows. Can you tell me in detail how to replace the valves in the float assembly.

Macdee washers for the float valve are available for the grey and white valve (blue and white is obsolete) but come with an outlet seal which I eventually worked out is the flush valve seal! They are a ridiculous price and I told them I'll just replace their valve with a Fluidmaster Pro! I suggest everyone do the same and forget about using or replacing a Macdee (Wirquin) valve that has very poor spares support!
