c. Appl y sl ight pressure to the knock-off extension
(Fig. 17.1}.
d. Apply slight pressure to the T -2 and R-5 armatures
(Fig. 17.1). Both armatures should be touching the

obtain this condition.
e. Tighten screw in Fig. 17.4.
6. Magnet Unit (Fig. 15) - Position under its two mounting
screws for .005" to .010" clearance between the pusher
tails and the armature latching surfaces ,(armatures at
rest) •
7. Mounting Bracket (Fig. 17.5) - Position under its four

1 • Latch
Sto~
(Fig. 18) - Position so that the latch lever
overlaps t e trip lever lug by .040" to .045"
Insufficient "bite" could cause extra cycles since the
trip lever may slip off the latch lever.
Excessive "bite" may cause failure to cycle since there
is a limited amount of motion available from the arma-
tures to pull the latch lever down.
