Assembly Procedure

i01167078

Note: Cleanliness is an important factor. Before assembly, all parts should be thoroughly cleaned in cleaning fluid. Allow the parts to air dry. Wiping cloths or rags should not be used to dry parts. Lint may be deposited on the parts which may cause later trouble. Inspect all parts. If any parts are worn or damaged, use new parts for replacement.

Note: Do not strike the diodes. The shock of such an impact can damage the diodes. Use proper tools in order to press the diodes in the mountings.

Illustration 1 g00564778

Mark I Control System

(1) Mark I control box (2) AUTO-purge timer (3) Cable for remote display (4) Remote display (5) Pigtail

(6) Actuator

(7) Temperature and ground cable

(8) Temperature sensor

(9) Position sensor

(10) Power cable

1. Mount control box (1) in the operator's compartment. The mounting location should meet the following criteria:

Minimal debris and vibration

Safe from water that is high pressure

Accessible for future adjustments or changes in setup

The control box should be mounted in a vertical position, and vibration mounts that are supplied with the controller should be installed.

2. AUTO-purge timer (2) is located near control box (1). Connect the end of the cable for AUTO-purge timer (2) to the plug end of the cable for the AUTO-purge timer on control box (1).

3. Cable for remote display (3) may not be required for all installations. Connect the end of the cable for remote display (3) to the plug end of AUTO-purge timer (2). Connect the plug end of cable for remote display (3) into the end of the pigtail for remote display (4).

4. Mount remote display (4) on the dash or another convenient location. The remote display should be visible and accessible to the operator. Connect the end of the cable for remote display (4) to the plug end of the cable for remote display (3).

5. Connect the end of pigtail (5) to the plug end of the cable for control box (1). Pigtail (5) splits into a harness with three connectors. One end goes to actuator (6). One end goes to temperature sensor (8). One end goes to position sensor (9).

6. The following steps are for installation of actuator (6):

Illustration 2 g00592444

(1) Actuator

(2) Actuator rod

(3) Actuator collar

(4) Setscrew

(5) Operator fork

(6) Hitch pin

(7) Mechanical stop (8) Position sensor (9) Alignment plate (10) Actuator clevis

a. Remove hitch pin (6).

b. Position operator fork (5) against mechanical stop (7).

c. Manually turn actuator rod (2) outward until the rod is fully extended. When the rod reaches the end of travel, the actuator motor can be felt turning.

d. Retract actuator rod (2) by the rotating actuator rod by 180 degrees. The actuator motor should not turn.

e. Slide actuator (1) through actuator collar (3). Verify that the actuator collar is oriented so that setscrews (4) are facing away from actuator clevis (10).

f. Retracting actuator rod (2) by 1/4 turn may be required in order to line up the hole in actuator rod (2) with the hole in operator fork (5).

g. Insert hitch pin (6) through operator fork (5) and actuator rod (2).

h. Verify that operator fork (5) is against mechanical stop (7). Make sure that the actuator motor is oriented in the correct position. The actuator motor must be clear of obstructions. Rotate the actuator in the collar prior to tightening setscrews (4).

i. Apply 9S-3263 Thread Lock Compound to setscrews (4) and install the setscrews. Tighten the setscrew to a torque of 16 N·m (12 lb ft).

Note: Do not tighten setscrews more than 1.5 threads below the surface.

j. Connect the end of the cable for the actuator to the red and yellow plug of pigtail (5).

7. Connect the end of temperature and ground cable (7) to the plug with green and black wires of pigtail (5). The ground wire (green) is secured with a bolt that threads in to the support arm of the fan assembly. The brown lead wire is connected to the top of temperature sensor (8).

8. Thread temperature sensor (8) into the engine block. An area that is close to the water temperature regulator is recommended. Temperature sensor (8) comes with three thread adapters. The brown lead wire of temperature and ground cable (7) connects to the top of temperature sensor (8).

9. The following steps are for installation of position sensor (9):

g00918804

a. Place mounting bracket (1) for the position sensor against alignment plate (3).

b. Thread bolt (2) into mounting nut (4) for the position sensor through alignment plate (3) and position sensor mounting bracket (1). Tighten bolt (2) to a torque of 16.3 N·m (12.0 lb ft).

c. Place position sensor (5) in the correct location.

d. Put washer (6) on capscrew (7). Thread capscrew (7) into mounting nut (4) for the position sensor through position sensor (5).

e. Connect the plug end of the cable for position sensor (5) to the end of the pigtail.

10. Connect the plug end of power cable (10) to the end of the power cable for the control box.

White wire - This wire connects to a 10 Amp fuse or to a circuit breaker. The power source that is being used must allow power to the control box when the engine is not running.

Black wire - This wire connects to the main disconnect or a different ground location.
