17. Install torsion spring on exterior
arm.
Using needle nose pliers, tighten spring one com-
plete turn before connecting to stud on arm.
18. Install terminal block on housing with num-
bered connector blades outboard of housing.
19. Plug double plug-in connector onto terminal
block.
20. Route red wire from top of magnet switch
under magnet assembly and over pintle shaft,
around pintle shaft and connect to middle connec-
tion of double plug-in connector.
21. Route black wire from lower connection on
magnet assembly (inboard toward exterior arm)
between magnet assembly and pintle shaft, around
pintle shaft and connect to other connection of
double plug-in connector.
22. Route red wire from upper omni-switch
connection under pintle shaft, around pintle shaft,
and connect to grounding point on motor side of
magnet.
CAUTION: Be careful when routing wires
so they will not come into contact with any
moving parts.
23. Install motor on housing, threading wires
through upper hole in housing. Make certain that
end of motor shaft engages in slot of drive screw.
24. Connect green motor wire to inside housing
motor mounting stud and install mounting nuts and
tighten securely.
NOTE: Do not tighten by using screwdriver
on slotted bolt heads, as this may result in
binding of the motor bearings.
25. Route black motor wire under pintle shaft
between legs of magnet assembly, and connect
wire to bottom of grounding point on locking arm
side of magnet.
26. Connect red motor wire to lower terminal
on omni-switch.
27. Install compressor rod guide on housing.
28. Lubricate compressor rod with cam and
bearing lubricant, install compressor rod through
guide into housing, and install locknut on threaded
end of compressor rod. Install governor spring
in actuator.
29. Move locking arm up against magnet and
press down on armature plate to latch the unit,
similating automatic control. Use a feeler gage
to measure gap between locking arm and latch on
armature plate, Fig. 12-92. This gap must be
between .001 inch - .006 inch. If gap is not within
Fig. 12-92
Locking Arm Latch Adjustment
specifications,
adjust gap by turning adjusting
screw counterclockwise to increase gap, or clock-
wise to decrease gap.
30. Release locking arm.
31. Move contact arm against either grounding
point and use a feeler gage to measure the gap
between contact arm and other point, Fig. 12-93.
This gap must be .090 inch ± .010 inch. If gap is
not within specifications, bend either grounding
point on magnet assembly until proper gap is
obtained.
32. Insert Locking Arm Gage, J-7652, over stop
stud. Move magnet assembly to low speed position
(magnet away from motor). Turn governor weights
until they are parallel with drive screw, then
place Governor Weight Wedge, J-8547, between
governor weights, pressing down lightly on wedge
and actuator until weights are held out to their
stop position.
33. Use a feeler gage to measure gap between
contact arm and either grounding point on magnet
assembly, Fig. 12-94. This gap should be ap-
proximately one-half of the full gap measurement
in step 31. If gap is not within specifications,
contact arm is not centered properly.
