from the sides of the center retaining tab and
press the seal down into the groove while sliding
your thumbs towards each other. This stretches
the seal to fit the profile of the groove allowing
the center tab to be seated properly. You may
need to use the tip of one of your thumbs to finish
pressing the tab into place.

seated in the seal groove you can apply pressure
