evenly, a little at a time. If leak persists replacement of stem packing (8)
is indicated (See Packing Replacement below).

B. Loosen “allen” type set screw (17) in stop plate (13) and lift off stop
plate.
C. Completely unscrew both 5/8" gland bolts (14) and remove stop washers

replaced in that order.
F. Put stop plate (13) over stem square and tighten set screw (17).
G. If valve comes equipped with handle, replace.
