Brass Index with Offset Drive Foot
Plastic Index with Metal Drive Foot
Step 7 – Route the sensor wire so that it
does not interfere with the magnet wheel
or the index gears. Hand tighten index
mounting screws. Gently move the 2-foot
hand to check for some free play to
insure that the register is not binding up.
Step 8 – Notch the index cover to allow
the sensor wire to exit through the bottom
left edge. On the clear plastic index
cover, you can remove (cut away) the
inner tab from the molded drain opening
at on the bottom left edge of the cover.
Position clear index cover on meter head
and route sensor cable though notch.
NOTE: If the meter is equipped with a
cast aluminum framed index cover,
enlarge the drain hole at the bottom left
edge of the cover to approximately 5/32”
using a metal nibbler and/or tapered file.
Clean up any sharp edges with the
tapered file before mounting the index
cover.
