• Connect the hooked end of the lift cable into the index
rod, and install the threaded cable adjuster into the
notch in the top of the index bracket, placing a nut on
each side of the notch.
• Adjust the cable adjustment nuts so that when the lift
trigger is squeezed, the bottom of the index rod raises
enough to release from the latched position. The index
rod should also lower far enough to lock in the latched
position when the trigger is released.
• Attach the lift cable to the lift handle using three cable
ties (RR).
