disc has to be positioned so that the disc teeth do not
touch the opto-coupler (6) on the circuit board. Tighten
the screw.

CAUTION

Assure that the chopper disc teeth do not touch the opto-
coupler. There should be 1 to 2 mm space between the
bottom of the opto-coupler and the disc teeth.

3.

Attach the heating element outlet (5) to the circuit
board. Put the circuit board in place and fasten it with
spacers (5).

4.

Fasten the three screws (3) at the bottom of the sensor.
Make sure that the bigger O-ring (14) is correctly
positioned between the upper and the lower sensor
bodies. The O-ring is recommended to be replaced
with a new one after each opening. Check also that the
connector's O-ring (14) is properly in its place.
