    The document describes an electric deadman handswitch used to control refueling operations. It is: 1) A compact and lightweight switch housed in a polypropylene body that is comfortable for operators to hold but robust enough to withstand harsh conditions. 2) Internally, it uses a hermetically sealed magnetic reed switch encapsulated for protection. 3) It has a fully sealed design meeting IP67 standards against water, fuel or debris ingress and an effective cable strain relief system.

    refuelling from either bowsers, hydrant operated by a positively retained permanent

    Cable Installation.
    1. Unscrew the End Cap and pass the cable through the Gland/End Cap, do not tighten the Gland Nut
    yet.
    2. Cut the cable sheath back by approximately 40 mm and bare the ends for connection to the
    Terminal Block. Use 2 off cable ties to double knot the cable as shown below.
    3. Carefully unscrew the Terminal Block and withdraw the Reed Switch element from the Housing.
    4. Connect the cable to the Terminal Block and replace the Reed Switch Element and Terminal Block
    into the Housing. Tighten the Fixing Screw.
    5. Make sure the Gland Nut is fully loose. While preventing the cable rotating relative to the
    Housing, tighten the End Cap sufficient to prevent it being unscrewed by hand.
    6. Tighten the Gland Nut and check the Deadman Handswitch for correct operation.

    Note. For dismantling always loosen the Gland Nut FULLY before unscrewing the End Cap so
    that the cable does not rotate relative to the Housing.
