Contact Blade

Install the contact blade and coil lead on the pedestal. Place the condenser terminal beneath the coil lead terminal. Proceed as follows:

  1. Adjust the contact blade so that the points on it are a little above the contact points on the rocker when the points are closed (see illustration).
  2. Further adjust the points so that when they make or break, one pair of points wipes over the-center line of the other in a symmetrical manner.
  3. A slot in the contact blades allows this degree of adjustment. Tighten the screw when adjustment is obtained.
