21、le II). e. The leakage limitations shall be attained with the plug or stem adjusted so that the maximum tangential force required to operate the cock or valve will not exceed an amount produced by normal manual application without the use of extension levers or special tools or wrenches. f. The cock
22、s or valves shall also be capable of b eing operated against the full working pressure applied to one side of the closed cocks or valves without the use of auxiliary levers or wrenches. TABLE II.
