MINOR REPAIRS
5.
If it was necessary to rotate the control handle
clockwise to obtain continuity, turn the eccentric
adjustment to move the pin down (or toward the
pump). If a counterclockwise rotation of the
handle was necessary to obtain continuity,
rotate the eccentric to move the pin up (or away
from the pump). Only a small amount of
adjustment in either direction is needed to
center the pin in the internal mechanism cam
slot.
Turn the eccentric a maximum of 14 of a turn
while frequently stopping to check maximum pin
depth into the eccentric collar. In most cases it
can be determined that the pin has engaged in
the slot, either by feel or depth gauge. within
the first 1/4 turn.
6.
While holding the eccentric in place, tighten
eccentric locknut to 20-35 ft. lbs. Reinstall the
switch as outlined in the Neutral Start Switch
replacement and adjustment portion of this
manual.
7.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 to determine whether
additional
adjustment
of
the
eccentric
is
necessary.
If further adjustment is required, continue
rotation up to 1,4 additional turn.
CAUTION
Do not exceed 1/2 turn total or 1800
from the initial pin position. Doing
so will turn the eccentric into or out
of
the
housing
beyond
specifications.
If too much adjustment was made, turn the eccentric 1/8
turn in the opposite direction.
Again, install the switch and check for continuity.
