Holding the plug stand in one hand and the inserter in the other, locate the hole on the dome end of the plug. Gently guide the inserter wire straight into the plug hole.
     It is very important that you go into the hole straight on and not at an angle. Going in at an angle could possibly cause the inserter wire to pierce or tear the body of the plug.
Once the inserter wire is fully inserted into the plug, gently slide the inserter up and away from the plug stand.
Inspect the plug once it is loaded onto the inserter, making sure it is properly seated. The plug dome should be nearly flush with the canula on the inserter. If the plug is not completely loaded onto the wire, gently push the plug into the cone-shaped dimple located in the center portion of the plug stand.
