See details on pages 18 - 23 for cutting the top foil
to length. Do not confuse the top foil with
the special bottom foil.
Check the top foil for burrs or shavings at the cut end.
Slide the top foil extrusion over the threaded stud and
connectors, to the top of the stay. The screw hole on
top foil must face the bottom of the stay.

wedge in the indentation with the circular mold mark
towards the connector and push the connector into the
top foil until it is recessed about 4" (100 mm).
Note: If the top foil is less than 12" (305 mm) ignore
this step. The connector used to join the top foil
serves as the bushing.
