INTERNAL SWITCH DESCRIPTION
(Refer to Figure 11)
The solenoid contains a built-in switch that is activated
when plunger nears the bottom of its stroke. The switch
button extends from the bottom of the solenoid end cap
into the core.
The switch should completely return to the "out" position
when plunger is out. If switch does not rapidly return to
the "out" position, debris has fouled the switch and
solenoid must be replaced.
