Operation
• The actuation height of the switch is adjusted by
turning the set screw with included hex key (see
Figures 2 and 3).
• Recommended actuation height:
• Each 1/4 turn of the adjusting screw changes
actuation height approximately .14mm.
• Adjust the actuation height to .25mm - .35mm
before the end of the ejector plate stroke.
Premature spring and switch
failure may result by adjusting the
operating point more than .5mm
before the end of the ejector plate
stroke.
