Details
Changing the Installation Position of the
Actuator
By loosening the Allen-head bolt on the ac-
tuator lever, the position of the actuator can
be set anywhere within the 360°.
With Operation Indicator-equipped Switch-
es, the actuator lever comes in contact with
the top of the indicator cover, so use caution
when rotating and setting the lever. When
the lever only moves forwards and back-
wards, it will not contact the lamp cover.
(This does not apply to Long-life Models.)

Adjustable rod lever
(WLCL-N, WLCL-2-N, WLCL-2N-N,

Changing the Orientation of the Head
By removing the head screws (two or four
screws), mounting in any of four orientations
is possible. Be sure to change the plunger
for internal operations at the same time.
The roller plunger can be set in either of two
positions at 90°.

Changing the Operating Direction
By removing the Head on models which can
operate on one-side only, and then changing
the direction of the operational plunger, one
of three operating directions can be select-
ed.
The tightening torque for the screws on the
Head is 0.78 to 0.88 N·m.
