1. Rings laid out in order

Rail - Expander - Rail - Intermediate Compression Ring - Top Compression Ring

2. Identifying the Top Compression Ring and the Intermediate Compression Ring

The Top Compression Ring (pictured at the top) is the Chrome one (it will look shiny and silver on the sides) and the Intermediate Compression Ring will be black

3. Identifying the orientation of the Top Compression Ring and the Intermediate Compression Ring

Both the Top Compression Ring and the Intermediate Compression Ring need to be oriented correctly. There are markings (letters) on the rings to indicate the 'up' position. In this case BL-GS.
