BOLTS and NUTS securely.

(20) onto each of the CABLE ends approximately ½". DO NOT TIGHTEN JAM NUT.
13. Attach one ROD END (20) to each of the CARRIAGES using one M10 X 40mm BOLT (21), one
ROD END SPACER (22), and one M10 HEX NYLOCK NUT (10) per side. Tighten the NUTS
securely.

The Product
MUST pass BOTH
of the following criteria:
A. With the LIFT BAR at its topmost position (CARRIAGES against BUMP STOPS) both
CABLES need to be in tension.
If the cable is not tensioned, screw the loose CABLE into ROD END until the
cable is taut. Re-cycle the lift bar and recheck the cable tension. When cable is
properly tensioned, proceed to criteria B.
B. Position the LIFT BAR at its bottommost position (LIFT BAR and BAR STOPS not
engaging LIFT BAR RACKS). Be sure both BAR STOPS are resting on the SIDE
FRAMES and both CARRIAGES are resting on the BAR STOPS.
Ensure that the cable is not too tight by slight pulling down on the CABLE while
holding the LIFT BAR firmly at its bottommost position. The cable should move
slightly; approximately ¼ to ½ inch.
If the cable is too tight, unscrew the tight CABLE out of the ROD END making
sure a minimum of three threads are engaged.
C. If both above criteria cannot be satisfied,
