INSTALLATION FOR OPERATING

Power connections to this accessory are made to the two spring clips under its base. Strip

the ends of the two green-covered connecting wires if they are not already stripped. (See

Figure 2). Press down the end of each terminal clip until you can insert the ends of a wire

in the small loop which projects through the slot. (See Figure 3). When you release the

spring it will lock the wire in the loop.

Connect the other ends of the wires to the transformer terminals. The vibrator-type motor

operates best in the range between 9 and 13 volts: If possible, use a variable output so

that you can adjust the voltage to suit the individual characteristics of your motor.

NOTE: The tower can be mounted on a permanent layout by wood screws passing

through the holes in the base. Don't tighten the screws too firmly or you may dampen the

vibrating motor and hinder operation.
