CM 162 EL microswitch

Post by scerir »

Any idea about the regulation of the Allen screw #162083 (microswitch regulation)? I have found different statements: 1) Rotate 1/4 turn anticlockwise (from the "null" point); 2) Rotate anticlockwise 1/3 turn; 3) Rotate anticlockwise 2/3 turn. (Ok, that depends on the specific shooter, but 1/3 turn -or more- seems too much indeed.)

Their are two different switch assy. one for the old 15v system and the newer AAA system.
One is a make switch and the other is a break switch (I just cannot remember which is which,
but it does not matter).
The older system allows for more adjustment and you could put some second stage travel on
the micro switch to have a roll off style trigger. Up to 3/4 turn.
The newer system is limited to 1/4 to 1/3 turn. If set too fine less than 1/4 the switch may not
reset as the micro switch spring ages. Past 1/3 of a turn does nothing to trigger feel.
To set, slowly wind the screw in until the solenoid fires, then back off 1/4 to 1/3 turn.
