The choice of sensitivity settings depends a great deal on the length of the bellcrank arm, and the

desired responsiveness of the system. The shorter the bellcrank, the higher the sensitivity needed

to actuate it. Higher sensitivity settings require more vacuum since the actuator is required to

move more frequently. Systems using short bellcranks of 1" to 1-1/2" may need the sensitivity

set to "high". Those systems with longer bellcranks that allow for full travel of the actuator will

probably use "low" or "medium" sensitivity. It is suggested that the "medium" sensitivity setting

be tried first for any new system design; adjustments to the sensitivity can then be made after

system testing. Note that with higher sensitivity settings, there may be sharper throttle responses

that could jerk the rider.

Attach the main wiring harness plug to the

connector inside the servo. The gray and black pair

of wires that are used for the magnetic drive line

sensor will not be used and may be clipped off from

the wiring harness. Reattach the access cover,

making sure that the wires are laid out flat as the

cover is tightened down.

Depending on the orientation of the servo when it

is mounted, the curved mounting bracket may

remain where it was installed by the factory, or it

may be rotated 180° from its original position, or

it may be removed completely.

If the servo will be mounted to the frame, two

3/4"-inch U-bolts can be used for attachment. But

first, the bracket must have a couple extra holes

drilled to match the width of the U-bolts. Clean

off any burrs from the drilled bracket.

In installations where there is minimal room, as

when installing extra-capacity vacuum canisters,

it may be necessary to remove the servo bracket

completely and secure the servo to the frame

using large cable ties.
