2 Open the AC control box 84
3 Remove the DIM along with the short cable attached to it, on the faulting soft starter by pushing the indented button above the display The cable clip must have the tab pressed to be able to remove it from the soft starter 84
4 Observe the way the cable is bent and installed in the soft starter 84
5 Remove the other end of the short cable in the DIM 84
6 Connect the extension cable that is in the bottom of the chassis to the soft starter Unwrap the cord so can pull from the bottom of the chassis 84
7 Pull the cord from the outside of the chassis so there is enough slack to easily view the removed DIM module 84
8 Plug the end of the cord outside of the AC chassis into the DIM 84
9 Close the cover to the AC control box and tighten If this cover is not closed properly it will cause the circuit breaker in the genset to trip 84
10 Remove the LOTO hardware 84
