1 Provide overload protection and disconnect as required.
2 Actuators mounted on separate shafts may be wired in
parallel. All actuator black wires are connected to the
transformer common and all red wires are connected to
the hot lead. Power consumption must be observed.
3 For end position indication, interlock control, fan startup,
etc., MA4X-715X-502, and MA4X-707X-502 models
incorporate two built-in auxiliary switches.

MX40-707X-502 and MX40-715X-502 units manufactured prior to the date code 0141
(October 6, 2001) used the following color coding for the auxiliary switches:
Auxiliary Switch 1
Orange:Fixed auxiliary switch common (com)
Yellow:Fixed auxiliary switch normally closed (NC)
Violet:Fixed auxiliary switch normally open (NO)
Auxiliary Switch 2

Yellow/white:Adjustable auxiliary switch normally open (NO)
The label information on these units is incorrect. If replacing these units, the auxiliary switch
operation of the replacement actuator will be per the product label.

Inspection
Requirements• Job wiring diagrams
Inspect the package for damage. If damaged, notify the appropriate carrier immediately. If
undamaged, open the package and inspect the device for obvious damage. Return
damaged products.
– 10mm open end wrench or socket wrench
– 7/16 inch, open end wrench or socket wrench
– 1/8 inch, allen wrench
– Appropriate screwdriver(s)
• Appropriate accessories
• Training: Installer must be a qualified, experienced technician
PrecautionsGeneral
Warning:
• Electrical shock hazard! Disconnect the power supply (line power) before installation to
prevent electric shock and equipment damage.
• Make all connections in accordance with the job wiring diagram and in accordance
with national and local electrical codes. Use copper conductors only.
Caution:
• Avoid electrical noise interference. Do not install near large contactors, electrical
machinery, or welding equipment.
• Do not drill holes in actuator body. Six pre-drilled holes are located on each side, under
the label, to accept #10-24 thread-forming screws for mounting accessories.
Caution: The MX41-707X and MX41-715X actuators are equipped with a manual
override.
• The manual override is to be used only when power is not applied to the unit.
• If the universal clamp is not set to 0° on the position indicator, manually wind the
actuator in the direction indicate d w it h he x wrench from -5° to 0° and lock with a
screwdriver.
• When operating manual override, back off 5° from full open mechanical stop to ensure
proper release.
• Do not attempt to use the manual override with actuators mounted in tandem. Damage
to the gear train may occur.
