Î In case of a zero shift (e.g. due to a sub-
sequent change in the restriction setting
or supply pressure), check the zero set-
ting and readjust it.
Î The adjustment range of the Xp restric-
tion is restricted by the pointer and stop
to one turn (Fig.13). Do not remove the
pointer.

Fig.13: Setting the Xp restriction
If the pointer has been removed by mistake,
a basic calibration can be performed as
follows:
1. Close the restriction until slight resistance
can be felt.
2. From this position, open the restriction
one ¼ turn.
3. Push on the plastic ring with pointer
pointing to the 0° position.
4. Set the restriction in the range between
90° and 180°.
5. Set Xp as described in section6.3.1.
