2.5 Select a ring segment that does not

have the drive pin. Position it over the

groove in the lower housing half. Make

sure the numbered side faces the pin slot

in the housing joint surface. Rotate the

first segment into the groove. The garter

spring should be on the outside diameter

of the segment.

2.6 For 3 segment rings, select the other ring

segment that does not have the drive

pin, keeping the numbered ends in order

as described in Figure 2. Make sure the

numbered side faces the pin slot in the

housing joint surface. Rotate the second

segment into the groove such that the

segment ends are exposed. The garter

spring should be on the outside diameter

of both segments.

2.7 Complete the ring with the final segment,

again with the numbered side facing the

pin slot in the housing joint surface. There

will be a gap between one of the joints.

2.8 Carefully hook the ends of the garter

spring within the groove in the segmented

ring. Do not overstretch the spring.
