Step 2

1.Thread one hex nut onto each of the three threaded rods included in package. Install threaded rod with a lock-washer onto the brass sensor nut. Secure rods in place by tightening each hex nut against the brass sensor nut.

2.Thread one jam nut and lower hex nut onto

each stud so the top surface of each nut is 13.75 in. (350 mm) from top surface of brass sensor nut. Secure each hex nut with a jam nut.

This setting is critical to ensure an adequate sensor seal and to prevent the rotor from hitting the isolation valve orifice during installation.
