ASSEMBLING THE HANDLE, REAR BRACE AND SUPPORT LOOP BRACE (ALL MODELS)
1. Insert handle with black grip (L) inside the rear support brace (F) with the hand grip facing away from the nose
(see Figure 5). Insert two 1/4"-20 x 1-1/4" long screws (N) through the brace and handle and secure with 1/4"-
20 hex lock nuts (O) (tighten screws to 50-60 in.-lbs. torque). NOTE: The 1/4"-20 lock nuts will sit down in the
groove on the handle stub when assembled, eliminating the need for the 7/16" wrench when tightening the
screw.
2. Rotate the handle with rear support brace up to the top of the frame, aligning the two bracket holes with the
holes through the top of the frame (see Figure 5). Insert two 1/4"-20 x 3/4" long screws (M) through the bracket
and frame and secure with 1/4"-20 hex lock nuts (O) (tighten screws to 50-60 in.-lbs. torque).
3. Slide the rear support brace (F) along the axle (8" models) or rear support mount (10" models) so it is centered
between the two wheel brackets. Slide both shaft collars (E) up against the rear support brace (F) and securely
tighten the shaft collar set screws against the axle or mount using the 5/32" Allen wrench.
4.
Check axle, wheel brackets, rear support brace and nose for proper location at this time. Make any required
adjustments. Securely tighten the nose and wheel bracket screws at this time (tighten the 1/4"-20 screws to 50-
60 in.-lbs. torque and the 5/16"-18 screws to 120-140 in.-lbs. torque).
5. Install the support loop brace (P), aligning the brace mounting holes with the frame holes (see Figure 5). Insert
one 1/4"-20 x 3/4" long screw (M) through a brace mounting hole, using light blows with a hammer to pierce
through the red stripe. Thread on one 1/4"-20 hex lock nut (O). Repeat this step to install the remaining three
mounting screws. Securely tighten the four loop brace screws at this time (tighten the 1/4"-20 screws to 50-60
in.-lbs. of torque).
