4. Use a punch to mark the position of the shoulder
washer on the mounting surface. The shoulder
washer should be at the center of the slot to
allow actuator movement during rotation.

5. Drill a hole into the mounting surface through the
mark using a drill and 5/32 in. (4 mm) bit.
6. Position the actuator so the shoulder washer is
over the hole; insert the anti-rotation screw, as
shown in Figure 6, and tighten against the
washer.
7. Secure the coupler to the shaft evenly by using
a 1/8 in. hex key to bottom each coupler hex set
screw against the damper shaft.
Note:
Maintain 1/8 in. clearance between the
mounting surface and actuator while
tightening the hex socket screws.
(See Figure 5.)
8. After bottoming each hex set screw against the
damper shaft, continue turning the hex key until
obtaining approximately a 30 degree deflection
of the wrench as illustrated in Figure 7
(40 to 65 in·lb). Repeat for the other hex set
screw.
!
CAUTION:
Equipment Damage Hazard.
Do not remove anti-rotation
screw and force damper blade
closed using the actuator. This
puts additional stress on the
gear train and could reduce the
life of the actuator.
