Could you briefly explain?

I have not personally used one, but...

See the round coil?

That is what we here call a 'chinese finger'. You may have seen one made of woven bamboo as a kid at a carnival or fair. You would stick your two fingers in the ends and then try to pull them apart. It grabs and gets tighter as you pull.

The wire chinese finger is slipped through the seal groove and the seal inserted into the finger. The handle for the finger is the item with the tapered end. It has a notch that indexes with the crimped-on end of the wire finger. Pull the new seal in place.

May not be a total no-brainer in practice, but sure beats trying to push it in.

I'm sure they come with instructions, and no doubt someone on the forum here has used one?
