Proprietary and Confidential
To attach the index/cover assembly on the meter
1. Place the mounting plate gasket (previously removed) on the index cover mounting plate. Align the gasket
and index cover mounting plate screw holes.
2. Place the index/cover assembly on the index mounting plate. (The index must face the direction it faced
before removal.) Attach the index/cover assembly on the mounting plate using original index screws.
Insert one screw and tighten two turns to hold it in place on the mounting plate. Insert the second
mounting screw and tighten until secure. Completely tighten the first mounting screw. Each index cover
mounting screw must be tightened evenly.
3. Turn the 100G Datalogging commercial gas endpoint wriggler so it intersects with the index wriggler.
Carefully lower the index-cover mounting plate assembly onto the 100G Datalogging commercial gas
endpoint.
4. Install four endpoint mounting screws (SCR-0062-001, see Installation Prerequisites on page 7). Tighten
screws in an alternating diagonal pattern.
Insert the first screw and tighten enough to hold index assembly in place.
Insert the second screw diagonal to first screw and tighten two to three turns.
Insert the third screw, tightening two or three turns.
Insert the fourth screw and tighten until secure.
Tighten the first, second, and third screws until secure. Turn each screw 1/4 to 1/2 turn after it contacts
the cover.
Tighten each endpoint mounting screw evenly. If you have access to a torque-driver, tighten mounting
screws to 72-inch pounds.
5. Install new tamper or wire seals. If tamper seals are installed, press into place with an 11/32 nut driver or
similar blunt tool. Crimp the seal if utility-approved wire seals are installed.
