4:Use the needlenose pliers to turn the mains jumper upside down so that the other voltage value is right side up, then reinsert the mains jumper. Reinsert the fuse sled by gently pushing it back in until you hear a click and snap the hook back beneath its retaining clip.

Note that the fuse sled carries two fuses—one for 115 volt operation (actually 105 - 120 volts) and another for 230 volt operation (actually 220 - 240 volts). The position of the two fuses in the sled as well as the fuse ratings must be maintained for adequate protection. Fuse ratings for the MPL 1640 are: 1 amp for 115 VAC and .5 amp for 230 VAC.
