Assembling the AMD kit

Slide the circuit (1) into the slot until it stops, and then screw it as shown in the ﬁgure.

Place the vane (3) in the position shown in the ﬁgure. The height on the shaft should be such
that when the vane passes through the sensor slots, remains centered without touching
them. Tighten the screw (4) holding the vane against the shaft.
