o

 

Find the best location for the sensors on each pedal that is out of sight and best place for the least 
amount of damage. 

o

 

Mount each sensor with 2 screws. 

o

 

Place a piece of reflective tape under each sensor. 

o

 

Adjust the sensor to so the spacer tab just touches the lever. 

o

 

Note that the pedal sensors need to be place so the lever 

moves away 

from the sensor. 

o

 

Note that Ill. 9 shows a soft shift sensor that was mounted inside the action cavity.  This was 
done because there was no room to mount on the underside of the keybed. 

o

 

Tie up and route the cables to the control unit.
