    The Model FS-2 Paddle Flow Switch is not field serviceable and
    should be returned if repair is needed (field repair should not be
    attempted and may void warranty). Be sure to include a brief
    description of the problem plus any relevant application notes.
    Contact customer service to receive a return goods authorization
    number before shipping.

    Figure 2: Adjustment

    Once you have the correct vane length, you can then adjust the
    flow rate setting by means of the adjustable bolt shown in Figure
    2. Fully tighten the adjustable bolt to obtain the minimum flow rate
    setting. Fully loosen the adjustable bolt to obtain the maximum
    flow rate setting. The adjustable bolt can be adjusted and set
    according to practical requirements. See Table 1 for the limiting
    flow rate settings in relation to the pipe diameter and blade length.

    NOTE: The Model FS-2 is shipped with the adjustable bolt fully
    tightened, in the minimum setting. Also, the pre-set bolt shown in
    Figure 2 has been adjusted before leaving the factory. Users
    should not adjust this by themselves. Adjustment of the pre-set
    bolt could lead to switch malfunction and possibly void the war-
    ranty.
