SHORTENING THE SENSOR
The steel tube can be shortened to the length between the two brackets thus:
a. Remove the rubber bung (opposite the plug) by loosening all nuts. Remove
the plastic spacer in the tube by loosening the allen screw.
b. Measure the distance (x) between the brackets exactly; reduce this length
by 22 mm. This measurement (L) should be measured from in between the
two washers as shown below. Cut the tube with a hacksaw. As the tube can
be damaged easily avoid using a vice when cutting the tube.

22 mm L
NOTE! Remember to remove all of the cuttings from the tube before fitting the
rubber
bung.
c. Position the plastic spacer again so that it is approx. 5 mm from the end of
the bolt in the rubber bung. Re-fit the rubber bung so that approx. 5 mm of
the bung is outside the tube. Tighten the nuts so that the rubber swells
slightly.
NOTE! The bolts in the bung must not touch the plastic spacer.
