Assembly
NOTE:
Be aware of the three loosely fitted cable ties attached to the lower handle
that will be utilized later to secure the cables.
1.
Loosen and remove the wing knob, saddle washer, handle tab and carriage
screw on each side of the lower handle. See Figure 1.
2.
Slide the loosely fitted cable tie from the right side of the lower handle up to
the cross member of the lower handle. Leave the second cable tie in place on
the right side of the lower handle. See Figure 3 for reference.
IMPORTANT:
It will be necessary to lift the upper handle while sliding up
this cable tie to prevent damage to the cable.
3.
Lift the upper handle up and position it over the lower handle, aligning the
holes where the wing knobs were removed ( (A) in Figure 2).
CAUTION
Be careful not to bend or kink the cables.
4.
Insert a carriage screw from the outside through a handle tab, the upper
and lower handles, a saddle washer and into the wing knob ( (B) in Figure 2).
Repeat on the other side.
5.
Tighten the wing knobs on each side of the handle. Refer to Figure 2.
NOTE:
The auger cable routes down the left lower handle and the drive cable
is routed across the top of the lower handle and down the right side of the
lower handle. See Figure 3.
6.
Two cable ties have been used to loosely tie the control cables to the lower
handle. A push clip is also included on the lower drive cable. Position cable
ties now, as in Figure 3, and tighten to secure cables to the lower handle.
Trim off excess material of cable ties. Install the push clip into the hole in the
handle provided as shown in the left inset in Figure 3.
