Tether the magnetic key and colored lanyard onto the deployment lever in 

lowered position as shown below. The key will only reach the throttle after 

you raise the deployment lever. This is a safety interlock feature.

Flex Drive E

 upper unit with the slots on 

the lower drive. Lower lever and carefully lower the unit until it is 

seated. The front of the motor head must sit level with the aluminum 

channel. If the coupling is not aligned, the motor may not function or

could be damaged.

Tighten down the unit using the wing nuts. Do not over-tighten as you
