Installation steps
Note
Make sure that the bracket can be clamped to the cooling fin such that
the neighboring fins do not prevent attaching the sensor.

Check the gap between the legs of the mounting bracket to match the
thickness of your motor's cooling fins. If necessary, use a vise to tighten
the bracket so that it can clamp firmly onto the cooling fin.
Step 2
Degrease the upper and lower surfaces of the selected fin at the
recommended mounting position.
CAUTION
Review and obey all manufacturer's instructions and safety precautions
when using degreasing agent.
Step 3
Apply Loctite 454 or similar glue to the clamping bracket legs before
TM
attaching it to the fin.
CAUTION
Review and obey all manufacturer's instructions and safety precautions
when using glue.
