After the lantern ring is in place, insert two more rings of packing on Group S and M and three
more on Group L, staggering the joints. One extra ring is furnished in each set of packing. The
extra ring should be added as required.

the bosses of the gland to hold gland halves together.
Place two gland nuts on the studs and draw up evenly but not tight.
