Assembly
Refer to figures 9, 10, 11, and 12.
1. If the stem was removed during packing disassembly, insert the stem back into the valve/actuator assembly.
2. Ensure the upper packing spacer (key 48) is installed, as shown in figure 9.
3. Using a non-marring installation tool, such as a 12-inch length of 1/2 inch PVC pipe, push the first anti-extrusion
washer (key 12) fully into the packing box by hand. Then, use the packing spacer (key 14) to fully seat the
anti-extrusion washer by firmly tapping the packing spacer against the anti-extrusion washer with a hammer and
the PVC pipe.
4. Remove the packing spacer from the packing bore.
CAUTION
All D4 packing kits include a single use packet of high performance fluorinated grease. This is the only acceptable D4
packing lubricant.
Note
In the following procedure, carefully install each packing ring individually over the valve stem and push completely into the
packing box with a non-marring tube. A 12-inch length of 1/2 inch PVC pipe works well for this. It is recommended that the
lubricated packing rings be installed individually rather than pushed in as a set.
5. Apply a 3mm (1/8 inch) bead of the supplied high performance fluorinated grease (key 44) around the groove of
the female packing adaptor as shown in figure 10 and install over the valve stem (key 16).
6. Apply a 3mm (1/8 inch) bead of the supplied high performance fluorinated grease (key 44) around the groove of
the packing ring as shown in figure 10 and install over the valve stem.
7. Install the male packing adaptor, lower anti-extrusion washer (key 10), and lower packing spacer over the valve
stem as shown in figure 9.
