4. Torque the heatsink bolts to 13.5 N•m (10 lb•ft) starting with the 
center heatsink and moving outward alternating left to right.
5. Check the clamp indicating washer.
Checking Clamping Pressure
Periodically inspect the clamping force in the PowerCage module. Ensure there 
is no power to the equipment.

Clamping Pressure Adjustment
1. Disconnect all power to the drive.
2. Do not loosen the adjustment nut. If you loosen the clamping pressure, 
carry out the assembly procedure to ensure uniform pressure on the 
thyristors.
3. Tighten with a 21 mm wrench on the adjustment nut (upward motion) 
until you can turn the indicating washer by fingers with some resistance. 
The calibration nut should not spin freely.
ATTENTION: To prevent electrical shock, disconnect the main power before 
working on the drive. Verify that all circuits are voltage-free using a hot stick 
or appropriate voltage-measuring device. Failure to do so may result in injury 
or death.
Calibration Nut - DO NOT ADJUST

Pressure Pad Face
Indicating Washer
Adjustment Nut
IMPORTANT Do not adjust the calibration nut located outside the indicating washer at the 
end of the threaded rod. The rotation of the calibration nut will affect the 
torque calibration, which is factory-defined. Only adjust the adjustment nut 
(see Figure 82
).
