    Don't know what you are asking unless it is.

    The wiring diagram is here: TORK 1101 SPST 120V TIME SWITCH

    From what I see, you need a neutral which you don't have.

    In the timer, think of 1 & 2 as the switch and X & L the power to operate the timer.

    To make wiring convenient, they provided a removeable jumper between L & 1.

    One way is to remove the jumper. Apply 120 V to X & L all the time and put the existing switch terminals to pins 1 & 2.
