Installation Instructions

Installation Instructions

 N/A Wire attachment: during installation, do not allow at any time the measuring wire to freely return.

Angle of wire outlet: Make sure during installation that the wire outlet is straight (tolerance of ±3º). Exceeding this tolerance leads to increased wear of the wire material and on the wire outlet.
