MTU Instruction
for Lancaster Model 250 Gas Meters
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 – Next, create an exit notch for the
sensor wire by using a nibbler or plastic
cutting plier to add a notch approximately
5/32” in diameter to the bottom left edge
of the clear index cover. Do not interfere
with the drain hole already molded into
the clear index cover. Clean up the
edges of the notch using a round tapered
file. Then position clear index cover on
meter head and route sensor cable
though notch.
Step 9 – Secure MTU bracket assembly
and the clear index cover to the meter
head using the two screws that originally
held the clear index cover. Tighten index
cover screws.
Step 10 - Replace any anti-tamper,
safety, or security hardware onto the
clear index cover as required.
Step 11 – Once Installation is complete,
program the MTU using the STAR
Programmer Software and your MTU
Programmer.
