INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

BJE 009909 Jarhead Tank Gauges - INSTALLATION

  1. Measure tank depth – determine if there is a riser.

  2. Verify there is enough horizontal space for the float arm. If your tank is HEIGHT H, then you need H/2 amount of clearance for the arm’s travel.

  3. Use hex wrench to loosen the set screw in the support arm’s collar.

  4. Extend the support arm to the correct length, Hriser + HL/2.

  5. While maintaining the length from step 4, align the float arm in line with the spring loaded shaft.
    (This will help prevent twists and tangles in the chain.) Tighten the set screw to lock the position of the support arm.

    Hold the spring loaded shaft in that position.

  12. Pull the chain through the hole on the float arm until there is no slack and then reattach the eyelet from step 9.

  13. Verify proper function. If it’s not working properly and if the orange indicator reads incorrectly, adjust the position of the eyelet. If repositioning the eyelet doesn’t work, verify the length of the arms and overall length is correct.BJE 009909 Jarhead Tank Gauges - INSTALLATION 10

  14. Remove sight glass. Remove threaded adapter from support and float assembly.

  15. If a thread sealant is required, apply appropriate sealer to male threads of adapter.

  16. Screw adapter in to tank bung. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

  17. Reinstall assembly into adapter. If you align the float arm in step 5, you can use the slot in the top of the disk as a guide to assure the float arm clears the side of the tank and/or baffles.

  18. Reinstall sight glass.
