5.1 Installing the Manual Bypass Handle
The unit ships with the handle sitting in the NORMAL position but
not installed (Figure 4.)
Install the handle as shown in Figure 6. The collet, the segmented
sleeve that fits around the shaft, is keyed to the shaft (Figure 5.
Take care not to rotate the handle in relation to the collet. The collet
slides on the shaft with little resistance when aligned correctly.
A raised line on the
plastic is the key
indicator on the
collet.
