Make
certain that
the cutting tips of the piercing
set
screws do not protrude through
(1)
the body of
the
flexi-
ble
coupling on the
switch
operator
output shaft
and (2)
the body
of
the universal
coupling and
thrust bearing
at
the upper
guide
bearing and universal
coupling groups ( or
the body
of the
rigid
coupling
if
an
intermediate
guide
bearing
assembly
is used).
Pass
the
lowest section
of
vertical operating
pipe
up
through the
guide
bearing
and
then through
the thrust
bearing
and
insert the pipe
section
into the universal cou-
pling
( or,
if an intermediate
guide
bearing assembly is
used,
pass
the
vertical-operating-pipe
section
up through
the
guide
bearing and insert
the pipe section into the
rigid
coupling).
Do not tighten
the coupling
clamp
or
piercing
set screw
at this
time. (The

lowest
section of
vertical operating pipe will, of
course,
be cradled in
the
open flexible
coupling
attached to the
output shaft
of
the switch operator.)
While holding the pipe section in
this
position, and
with the
thrust
bearing resting
on the
guide
bearing,
tighten
the
piercing set screw in the thrust
bearing,
piercing
the pipe, and continue turning
until
a
firm resis-
tance is
felt.
At
the universal
coupling,
tighten
the
clamp bolt
to
final tightness,
then tighten
the associated
piercing
set screw,
piercing
the
pipe,
and continue turn-
ing until
a
firm resistance is
felt.
(If
an intermediate
guide bearing
assembly
is used,
tighten
the clamp bolt
on the
rigid coupling
to permanent tightness;
then
tighten the
associated
piercing
set screw,
piercing the
pipe,
and continue
turning until
a
firm resistance is felt.)
