SETTING AND PULLING INSTRUCTIONS
FOR

PARMACO HOOKWALL SET DOWN PACKERS

ORIENTATION AND USE
This packer is run with the neoprene element at the top of the packer. The packer
sets in a downward movement due to the weight of the tubing. It is suitable for setting in
open hole or casing.
RUNNING AND SETTING INSTRUCTIONS
While running packer in the hole, take care not to turn the packer. The last move
of the packer before starting the setting operation must be upward approximately one
foot.
The packer is set by turning one half turn to the left (counter clockwise looking
down) then lower to engage the slips and neoprene. The weight of the tubing causes the
slips to wedge against the wall and expands the neoprene to affect the seal.
PULLING INSTRUCTIONS
Pull tubing and retrieve packer. No preparatory steps are required.
PRECAUTIONS
In the event a packer is to be used in acidizing a well, care should be taken to pull the
packer after acidizing in order to prevent the seizing of packer components due to corrosive
action. Otherwise, difficulty could be encountered later in pulling the packer.
IMPORTANT

REMOVE WIRE FROM SLIPS BEFORE RUNNING PACKER!
