Valve sizes 10-inch and 12-inch without a lever have two two (2) Bonnet O-rings (429).
c.
Valve sizes 10-inch and 12-inch, equipped with a lever, have two (2) Inner Bushing

o-clock position. ( See Detail "A", figure 10 ). On 10-inch and 12-inch valves, the Disc can only be mounted
as shown in figure (7).
