ATC Empress Coversion using WE 702B base as the internals

From my post originally submitted in the Restoration and Repair Topic regarding my Empress with the 702B Princess base being used as its internals I can "report" that the hookswitch actuator it currently has is for Empress sets using a separate hokswitch or a network with a integrated hookswitch on the network apparently...

It sits behind the Princess' hookswitch arms with about 1/4' to 1/2' space between them.

Apparently, a different hookswitch actuator or an adaptor to the existing one is needed to allow it to operate the 702B's hookswitch properly that is problematic. Advice or suggestions are welcomed.

BTW: The 702B components function well, it's only getting the Empress sets hook actuator to work the 702B's hookswitch levers.

The practice with the information I am using to install  a 702B Princess base in a ATC Empress is ATC Standard Practice, Section 5-202, August 1974. Section 1, A-M, and Section 1.02 , A-B, and Section 1.03[/b This includes Figures 1 and 2.

This is on pages 1-4 of that practice.

Also, My Empress is the 5300 Deluxe version

As I mentioned in my earlier posting, I am apparently without the correct hookswitch actuator to work the 702B's hookswitch levers, or a an adapting piece that would allow the Empress' actuator to work the 702B's hookswitch levers, and need advice/help, please.

Thank You, with Best Regards,
