1. Lay the right side of the handle on a flat surface with the inside facing up.
 If replacing the handles, apply the Duramax LT label to the left side of the torch handle.
2. Press the cap-sensor switch into its post hole and onto its mounting post. (See Figure 105.)
3. Route the cap-sensor wires as shown in Figure 106. Place the connector above the start switch’s posts with the
wires positioned below the slot for the gas hose fitting’s flange as shown.
4. Press the start switch onto the two mounting posts and position the wires below the slot for the gas fitting. The start
switch should hold the cap-sensor switch connector in place. (See Figure 105 and Figure 106.)
