Step 13: Use a sanding disc to clean and remove all the burrs on the bottom of the kettle lid.
Step 14: Slide the heat shrink sleeve over the level float wires and use a hair dryer to shrink the sleeve so that it is snug on the wires.
Step 15: Add silicone to the level float.
Step 16: Feed the shrink-wrapped float assembly wires through the larger of the two threaded holes in the lid. Make sure the float is on the side of the lid that will be inside the kettle. Place the G107 O-ring in the hole. Using a 3/4" and 7/8" wrench, secure the float assembly to the lid with the 1/4” extender adapter (B111) and 1/4" nut (B156).

Step 21: When positioning the heating coil make sure that the water level float is right in the middle as shown.
Step 22: Put the new O-ring gasket on the kettle tank. Make sure that it is lined up perfectly, and that when the lid is put on there is a full seal.
Step 23: Add two washers to each of the holes shown.
Step 24: When the lid is secured on you will see a little bit of a gap.
Step 25: Re-connect plumbing to kettle lid. Final assembly shown above.
