3.3.1 Shaft Installation

Start the assembly by installing the 4-mm diameter stainless steel shaft into the flow meter body. This is a press fit part, though, it is not necessary the fitment require excessive amount of force for assembly. If the shaft does not locate in the recess, sand the internal diameter of the mounting location. Figure 3-1 displays a correctly assembled shaft and flow meter body.
