Installation Guide

Note: If a TEMP COMP sticker is attached to the index where the encoder cable will
mount, remove it before cleaning with the acetone stick. If the sticker (or replacement
sticker) must be put back on the register face, place it in a new location on the index
face after the encoder is attached.
13. Tilt the acetone stick vertically with the applicator foam end down. Squeeze the acetone
stick on the black dot until the packet inside the pen breaks. Continue to hold the pen in a
vertical position until the acetone wicks into the foam applicator end. Apply a thorough
coat of acetone to the index where the encoder will be installed. Do not touch the area
where the acetone was applied before the encoder is installed.
14. Slide the thin end of the encoder spacing tool down over the magnet hub.
15. Peel the protective plastic away from the adhesive side of the encoder.
Important! You must do the next two steps exactly as described or the Cellular
500G will not work properly.
16. Press the curved side of the encoder firmly against the side of the encoder spacing tool as
shown below, with the adhesive side down. Slide the encoder down along the side of the
encoder spacing tool until it touches the surface of the index (as shown below). Using
