TEARDOWN AND REBUILD PROCEDURES: SERIES PFC FRAME CLAMPS
POSITION SENSOR DISASSEMBLY:
1) Remove fastener (33A). This will free amplifier box (33B) from switch housing (28).
2) Remove fasteners (35) and remaining switch components (33C, 33D, & 34) from switch housing (28).
3) To remove the switch “chicklet” (33C) from the adjustment bar (34):
a. Note that the switch pins (33D) protrude from the adjustment bar (34) on the opposite side of the switch chicklet (33C). Set this
assembly on a surface so the chicklet (33C) is facing upward. Press down on the adjustment bar (34). This will lift the chicklet
(33C) off of the adjustment bar (34) slightly.
b. Using pliers or a small, flat screwdriver, cautiously rock the chicklet (33C) off of the adjustment bar (34) to avoid damage to plastic
switch pin (33D).
c. NOTE: Switch pins (33D) may remain in adjustment bar (34). If this occurs,
simply use pliers and gently remove them from the adjustment bar (34) to avoid damage.
4) Clean all components and inspect for wear and damage. Replace if required.
