Description
A magnetic pickup is an AC generator. It is normally installed into the fly-
wheel housing of an internal combustion engine, so that the starter ring
gear acts upon it to generate a voltage pulse each time a gear tooth passes
the end of the sensor.

TURN
Typical Installation
Magnetic Pickup Installation (see diagram below)
Drill and tap a hole in the flywheel housing (See Specifications for
model and thread size). IMPORTANT: Drilling too deep may damage
ring gear teeth. Blow chips with air hose when drilling and tapping hole.
Gap Adjustment
Insert magnetic pickup and turn until it stops at
the face of the gear. Back-off the gear by turn-
ing the pickup counter-clockwise 1/4, 1/2, or
3/4 turn (drawing right) .
See Gap Chart below to determine gap distance
based on the turn. Check gap clearance by
rotating the gear completely around.
NOTE: Magnetic pickup gap should be adjusted so
that the minimum voltage required is attained at the engine’s lowest
RPM. The voltage will increase as the speed increases.
If erratic readings occur, remove magnetic pickup and check the
magnetic tip for metal chips.
