9b.  NOTE:  in this step, it is necessary to do three 

things at one time.

 

1.  The clevis assembly must be positioned just 

to the right side of the belt, near the belt idler 

arm.

 

Figure 3.

3.  The handle support is positioned, in the 

bottom slot behind wheel, Figure 2, and then the 

upper two bolts are attached with the "L" bracket 

in the left hole.  Figure 4.  BE SURE the slotted 

side of the "L" brackets is facing toward the large 

pulley.

10.  Connect the flat end of the clevis assembly to the 

idler arm as shown in Figure 3.  The hardware 

needed is on the clevis assembly.  This should 

pivot freely after it is tightened.

11.  Route convoluted tubing from the control panel to 

the front of the engine and attach at three points 

with clips shown in Fiugre 5 and 6.  Route wiring 

and cable on the inside of the bracket. Route 

convoluted tubing next to the hour meter wire 

ty-rap together below the clip on the convoluted 

tubing. Figure 7.
