Be careful not to force the nose cone assembly into the
cage insert. Be sure that rotor engages both front and
rear rotor bearing pins prior to pressing the nose cone
assembly fully into the cage insert.

Press the nose cone assembly fully into the cage insert and turn it
counter clockwise catching the calibration linkage in the slot. Check
to see that the rotor spins freely. If not, remove the nose cone
assembly and repeat the procedure. Install and tighten nose cone
assembly setscrew.

Holding the cover plate in one hand, align the thermoplastic cage
bayonette-like tabs with the slots in the cover plate (1 1/2" - 4" only).
Rotate the element clockwise until the cage set screw hole is aligned.
Install the cage set screws (quantity 1 for 1 1/2" - 4", quantity 4 for 6")
and tighten.

4-9. REINSTALLING METER HEAD ASSEMBLY

Badger recommends that a new housing O-ring be used after each
teardown and reassembly of the Recordall

®

Turbo Series. To provide

a tight seal, make sure the surfaces of the housing and meter head are
clean and free of any old O-ring material. Be careful not to force the
measuring element insert into the meter housing. If you experience
any binding, do not force the element into the housing. Remove the
element from the housing and properly reinsert the unit.

NOTE

Head bolts should be tightened similar to that on car tire.
First insert the bolts and snug-fit each. Then using a
crisscross pattern, tighten the bolts down. Following this
pattern, the meter head will not turn allowing the rotor to
remain perpendicular to the flow and eliminating any
potential flow distortion. Head bolts should be tightened
to 10-11 ft. lbs. for 1 1/2" and 2" sizes, and 35-40 ft. lbs.
for 3" - 6" sizes.

The registration device should be reinstalled on the meter body.

To place the meter back in service, close the flushing system drain
valve. Open the upstream valve partially, then open the downstream
valve slightly to purge air from the service line. Then open both valves
completely.
