bonnet, make sure it is properly nested in the pocket of

(required only on ST valve) to hold the bearing in place.

place a packing ring, the packing spacer, and the
remaining three packing rings over the stem in the order
shown (Figure 1). Individually tap each packing ring into
the bonnet as far as possible.
CAUTION: The splits in the packing rings must be
staggered to provide a good seal.

packing gland nut sufficiently to fully compress the
packing rings into the bonnet. Loosen the packing gland
nut to readjust to “finger tight” only.
