Rising stem gate Valve- Stem threads are out side of valve body and in no contact with fluid medium. Stem rises while opening the valve (by hand wheel). Since the stem threads are located outside obviously it needs some more vertical clearance space while opening the valve.Non Rising Stem gate Valve - Stem threads are inside the the valve body and it is in contact with fluid medium. Hence, lot of chances for fouling the threads and these types of valves only can be used in clean liquids and gases. Less vertical clearance space required while opening the valve.

How do you work a valve stem remover?
I worked at a shop and when we would put on tires and new valve stem we would first cut the inside off or at least sever it and then you screw on the puller to the valve and use the rim as a fulcrum and pull out the old valve stem. Then you should lube up the new valve stem stick it through the hole and attach the remover and pull it through till it snaps in place.
