4.Disconnect leads from switch. Tag leads as they are disconnected to assure, during replacement, they are reconnected to the proper switch terminals.

Replacement:

1.Connect tagged electrical leads to replacement switch.

2.Insert replacement switch through panel from which defective switch was removed. Insert nameplate over toggle and secure to panel with nut supplied with switch. Orient switch and tighten nut to secure in desired position.

3.Plug in filter power cord and operate switch to verify switch orientation corresponds to nameplate legend. If not, loosen attaching nut and reorient nameplate and/or switch as desired and retighten nut.

C.MELT CYCLE SENSOR

1.Disconnect filter from electrical power source.

NOTE: Remove all oil from filter vessel. Filter must be positioned on its end to access melt cycle sensor.

2.Raise front (power cord) end of filter and rest filter on oil absorbing rags on its back end.

3.Remove bottom cover attaching screws; remove bottom cover.

4.Remove electrical leads from defective melt cycle sensor.

5.Loosen heater element cover attaching nut adjacent to melt cycle sensor sufficiently to release melt cycle sensor and its retaining plate. Disengage melt cycle sensor.

Replacement:

1.Orient replacement melt cycle sensor in its retaining plate such that the metallic sensing surface will be in direct contact with filter vessel. If necessary, reverse orientation of retaining plate.

2.Position retaining plate under heater element and tab on heater element cover with melt cycle sensor sensing surface in direct contact with filter vessel. Tighten loosened heater element attaching nut.

3.Attach removed electrical leads to melt cycle sensor. Verify terminals are not in contact with any metallic parts of filter vessel, heater cover or heater.
