• 

Insert the spool into the pressure gauge Redundant Alarm, or ICM.  The spool's larger-

diameter hole must face 

toward

 the gauge. 

• 

Thread the gauge (or Redundant Alarm) into the Transmitter Adapter Block.  The gauge 

must screw in at least 6 1/2 turns with the jam nut firmly against the Transmitter Adapter 

Block. 

 

Note:

  See Installation Instructions for ICM 

 

CAUTION! 

Do not tighten the gauge by hand.  Use wrenches. 

 

WARNING! 

Do not try to screw the small-diameter (tapered thread) gauge (P/N 495764 or 495765) into 

the Transmitter Adapter.  Use the larger-diameter gauge (P/N 10003610 or P/N 10003611) 

with a straight thread.  Failure to follow this precaution can result in serious personal 

injury or death. 

 

• 

If the gauge is not facing out (away from the shoulder pad), unthread the gauge 

not more 

than one turn

 to obtain this alignment.  Hold the gauge to prevent turning.  Tighten the jam 

nut against the adapter block to a torque of 200-225 in.-lbs. 

 

WARNING! 

Do not unthread the gauge more than one full turn.  The gauge-adapter connection may 

leak, resulting in serious personal injury or death. 

 

• 

Make sure the gauge guard (alarm boot on Redundant Alarm units) is in place around the 

gauge. 

• 

Check that the dust cover is installed on the gauge hose above the Transmitter Adapter.
