3. Unscrew one index mounting screw completely. Hold one hand under the index to catch the screw. While
removing the other mounting screw, pull the index away from the meter to keep the index backplate
against the back of the screw. Remove the screw completely after the index is free of the meter.
Set the index aside where it will not be damaged or fill with dirt, rain or snow. The index will be mounted
to the endpoint later in this procedure. Verify the index mounting screws are 3/16" long and not corroded.
If the screws are the correct length and not corroded, retain for later use. If the original screws were
discarded, use the correct replacement screws (see Installation Prerequisites on page 7.)
4. Remove the old gasket, gasket residue and dirt from the meter (if applicable). The meter face must be free
of gasket residue before you install the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint.
