Packed valve handling precautions

• Open the valve stem all the way out ; do not try to

open it beyond the stopper.

• Securely tighten the valve stem cap at the torque as

follows:

Hexagonal wrench is required.

• As shown in the figure, be sure to use a double

spanner to loosen or tighten the flare nut of the valve
at gas side. If using a single spanner, the nut cannot
be tightened with necessary tightening torque.

On the contrary, use a single spanner to loosen or
tighten the flare nut of the valve at liquid side.
