4. Remove white shaft coupler for safe-keeping while making

wiring connections (see Figure 6).

5. Connect wires according to wiring diagrams (Figures 7 thru 11).

Note: Electrical connections should be made with generous
loops of wire — approximately 6” per lead.

6. Replace white shaft coupler.

7. WARNING: It is possible to replace enclosure

cover with adjustment knob 180 rotational
degrees out of alignment resulting in large cali-
bration errors. To avoid this, carefully follow
these procedures.

A. Be sure that thermostat shaft is fully counter-clockwise (see

Figure 12). With thermostat knob held in the indicated OFF
position, carefully replace enclosure cover while feeling for
proper engagement of
shaft coupling.

B. With cover screws replaced

and moderately fastened,
check for full rotation of
dial knob. Note: Mild shaft
resistance should be
encountered. If satisfied,
that proper engagement of
shaft coupler is accom-
plished; finish tightening
cover screws.

8. Note: If load amperage or

voltage rating exceeds switch
rating, a contactor must be
used. Contactor and wiring to
be supplied by customer (see

CALIBRATION

WARNING: Hazard of Electric Shock. Extreme care
should be exercised during calibration adjustments
because of shock hazard due to exposed electrical
terminals. Failure to comply can result in electrical
shock or electrocution.

These controls are factory calibrated to the range indicated on

the control adjustment knob.

If calibration is required, either one of two methods may be

followed.
1. If accurate measurement standards are not available, the ther-

mostat can readily be adjusted to a known temperature standard
such as boiling water (212°). See Figure 13.

2. With the aid of an accurate thermometer or other temperature

measuring device, recalibration may be performed within the
process as in Figure 14.
For either method, the following general calibration procedures

should be followed.
