screw(1) on the pressure switch body.
Look for the “Line” markings on the pressure switch. Install
the line wires (3, 4) and tighten the terminal screws (6).

screwdriver into the raised notch, and tap the screwdriver
with a hammer until tight.
Tighten the strain relief screws (2) to hold the power cord
securely.

same position as when removed to sit correctly in place.
