4. If the reading is not correct, proceed to Step 5. If the reading is correct, proceed to Step 6.

5. a. Loosen the small Set Screw that retains the Spur Gear to the Potentiometer Shaft.

b. Using a small flat-tipped screwdriver in the slotted Potentiometer Shaft, rotate the Shaft until the correct

reading is obtained as described in Step 3.

c. Retighten the Set Screw.

6. Disconnect the ohmmeter and reconnect the Potentiometer wiring to the original connection.
