pressuring assembly to the inlet

valve stem and lock it in place with the retaining pin and lanyard. Check

that the safety bleeder valve is closed (knob tightened clockwise).

17. Connect the back pressure receiver to the bottom valve stem and lock it

in place with the retaining pin and lanyard. Ensure that the safety bleeder

valve is closed (knob pushed all the way inward) and the receiver outlet

needle valve is closed (knob tightened clockwise).

Use caution. It is easy to get burned while working in the confined space

below the heating jacket.
