14.  Insert a standard flat screwdriver between the middle 
and top button contacts on the reversing movable 
contact assembly and twist to separate. Line up 
the movable and stationary contacts and rotate the 
movable contact assembly clockwise over the reversing 
stationary contact. See Figure 41. 
15.  Continue to reposition the screwdriver, separate the 
button contacts and rotate the reversing movable 
contact assembly until the middle button contact is 
fully engaged in the center of the reversing stationary 
contact blade. See Figure 42.
16.  Slide the stationary and movable contact assembly 
toward the contact panel.  Align the movable contact 
assembly so that the reversing movable tube aligns 
with and goes through the hole in the contact panel. At 
this point the stationary contact and movable contact 
should be fully engaged with the contact panel. See 
Figure 43.
1 7.   Place a flat washer and nut over each of the reversing 
neutral stationary contact studs. Tighten to a  torque of 
80–90 in-lbs (9.0–10-2 Nm). See Figure 44.
