If a press is not readily available, a piece of wood
such as a 2 × 4 in × 12 in long, can be used.
Manually engage ring in housing making sure it
is equally inserted all around. Place wood piece
over ring. Using a hammer, strike on wood to
push ring. Strike one side then rotate wood piece
about 90° and strike again.
Frequently rotate
wood piece so that ring slides in evenly until it
