1. Ensure that the actuator is in MANUAL mode and the load is removed from the Worm Shaft Assembly.
2. Make note of the current OPEN and CLOSED Torque Switch settings before reinstalling the Torque Switch.
3. Loosen Torque Switch Adjustment Screws (piece 300-4) and position both Index Arms (piece 300-2) and (piece 300-3) at the 1
setting; tighten the Torque Switch Adjustment Screws. Make sure the Index Marks are aligned. See figure 15.
4. Loosen Balancing Screws (piece 300-8) and install the Torque Switch. When properly installed, the base of the Torque Switch is flush
against the Actuator Compartment and the hole for the Mounting Screw is aligned. Install the Mounting Screw.
5. Tighten the Balancing Screws. The Torque Switch is now balanced and ready for Index Arm (piece 300-2 and piece 300-3) to be
returned to their original settings.
6. Follow your wiring diagram to connect Torque Switch wiring.
4.4.4 Rewiring the Torque Switch for Non-Standard Drive Sleeve Rotation
a
CAUTION:
Double check your wiring diagram to verify that your Torque Switch is wired appropriately for your application. The
Torque Switch will not protect your valve from over-torque if you do not apply appropriate wiring for your application.
L120-85 actuators are typically supplied with a CCW
Drive Sleeve rotation to open a valve. The two Torque Switches are marked
OPEN (CCW
) and CLOSE (CW
) based upon CCW
Drive Sleeve rotation to open the valve. The MDPI on the L120-85 is
typically mounted for the full CCW
rotation to indicate the OPEN position (100%). If opposite drive sleeve rotation is required (CCW
to CLOSE a valve), the following torque switch modifications are required.

WARNING:
Hazardous Voltage. Turn power OFF before opening the Electrical Compartment Cover or making any adjustments to
the Torque Switch.
1. Turn power to the actuator OFF before changing Torque Switch wiring.
2. Reverse the OPEN and CLOSE Torque Switch labels on the ID Limiter Plate. See figure 11.
3. Interchange OPEN Torque Switch wires 18 and 18C with CLOSED wires 17 and 17C (refer to your wiring diagram for other Torque
Switch wiring configurations).
