Attached the Full Port Valve to the Mounting HardwareAttached the Full Port Valve to the Mounting HardwareThreaded Flo-tapFirst, thread the guide nipple into the mounting then thread the valve

Flanged Flo-tap

The valve stem should be in-line with the pipe so it will not interfere with the insertion rods

The valve must be a full port valve to allow the Annubar to pass through the valve into the pipe

Shown twisted ~90° from Gear Drive Plate

Top Plate and Gear Drive Plate should remain parallel during insertion

If Using a Drill for Insertion, Attach the Drill to the Insertion MechanismIf Using a Drill for Insertion, Attach the Drill to the Insertion Mechanism Do not exceed

Place a finger above the packing gland to feel for full insertionPlace a finger above the packing gland to feel for full insertion CAUTION: Be

careful if doing this with steam or other harmful fluids

When movement stops, the Annubar is fully inserted
