Shaft Log Packing Nut

The Shaft Log Packing Nut should be checked periodically
and adjusted if needed.
Adjust as follows:
1. Loosen the jam nut a few turns.
2. Tighten the shaft log packing nut by hand. DO NOT over
tighten.
3. Tighten the jam nut against the packing nut.
4. Check for leaks.
NOTE: It is normal for the Packing Log to drip water at
a slow rate of one drop every 15 to 30 seconds.
Overtightening the packing nut may disturb the packing
and cause excessive dripping.
