Installation of a Rigid Probe
Installation of Stainless Steel Probe
1. Insert bottom end of probe into tank.
Do not allow the float to drop suddenly since it can
damage the retainer at end of probe.
2. Thread bushing into tank or flange. Bolt flange into
position.
3. Thread compression fitting into bushing or flange.
4. Hand tighten. To insure compression fitting is
sealed, turn fitting ¼ turn after hand tightening.
Make final check to see that all bolts and screws are in
proper position and probe is securely tightened.
