- To prepare the actuator frame, tap the four frame servo mounting holes with a 6-32 tap.
- To tap the frame start by clamping the frame end to end into a vice with the bottom facing up.
- Place the tool for this item on the bottom of the frame.
- Use a power drill and 6-32 tap to tap the holes.
- Fill one tub with water and one tub with soap and water.

- Rinse off the frame.
- Dry the frame with compressed air.
- Check to see if there is any debris in the holes.
- Press-form the 4PV frame bearing tabs to properly bear on the 4PV body (TL-TBT4PVAF).
- Use special tooling; See photos.
- There are two parts to the tool for bending tabs 4PV actuator frame in the 4PV frame.
- One part inside of the frame has a hole in it and the hole faces up.
- The other part of the tool has a metal rode in the center and goes between the tabs that we will be bending and the rode goes into the hole of the other tool.
- Place a 1 inch parallel on another vice with a 1-3/8 parallel behind it and a spring holding it all together.
- Place the TL-TBT4PVAF and vice with the frame inside of it inside of a vice setup.
- Close the vice until the tabs touch the tool between the tabs.
- Pay attention to how much the vice is being closed because it is very easy to bend the tabs on the frame too much.
