1. INSTALL PACKING OR SEAL:
A. Pumps with packing
It is always good practice to install new packing during a complete rebuild. New
packing sets are available from an authorized Tuthill distributor.
Install and seat each ring into the bracket stuffing box and stagger cut joints from
one side of the shaft to the other.
Loosely install the gland, using the gland studs, nuts and washers. The packing
will be adjusted on-site.
