IO HLO-4001 70501904E
Crank Arm Kit for MEP-4000 Series Actuators
HLO-4001

Installation Guide

Mounting
1. From the MEP-4xxx actuator, remove and discard the V-bolt.
2. Assemble and install the kit and actuator as shown in the diagram below.
NOTE: In general, position both the ball joints as close to the end of the crank arms as is feasible for the application. Positioning a ball joint in the slot closer to the shaft will change the torque, rotation speed, and/or angle of rotation--which may be useful for some applications.

NOTE: NOTE: NOTE:

Check for potential issues such as binding of the linkage or damage caused by the actuator still rotating when the damper (or other application) is already closed.
See Accessories on page 2 for an auxiliary crank arm if the damper or other equipment does not have one already installed.
For more information about installing MEP-4xxx actuators, see the MEP-4xxx Actuators Applications Guide on the KMC Controls website (www.kmccontrols.com) as well as the relevant installation guide.
