the box of fittings shipped with each pump and must be installed before startup.
1. Carefully clean the stuffing-box bore.
2. Twist the packing enough to get it around the shaft.

Install the stuffing-box parts in this order:

NOTICE:
Make sure that the lantern ring is located at the flushing connection to ensure that flush is obtained.
Failure to do so may result in decreased performance.
