Installation & Adjustment Procedures
Operating Mechanism
(See Operating mechanism drawings provided for details):
1. Lay out all op-mech parts and check them against the Operating Mechanism drawing bill-
of-material.
2. To ensure that the bearing stops do not interfere with switch adjustments, loosen each
open/close bearing stop and slide them out of the way.
Refer to the Operating Mechanism drawing and install all mounting brackets, bearings,
bushings, pipe clevises, switch operating device, adjustable arm, reach rod, and other
necessary components. Refer to
Figure 5: Typical Operating Arrangement
3.
Caution:
The pipe collar (above the vertical bearing) must support the entire weight of the
vertical operating pipe. To prevent unnecessary component damage,
Do not allow the
pipe to rest on the switch operating device.
Refer
4. While installing the pipes and clevises that have piercing bolts/set screws, do not pierce
the pipe until instructed. Tighten the piercing bolts such that they grip the pipe until all
adjustments are made.
5. After mounting all op-mech components, match-mark all clevis connections, the adjustable
arm, and the switch operating device’s coupling, so that you can tell if slippage occurs
during trial operations.
