Remove the cover shaft hinge from the shafts.
•
Connect the coil cable pull-through to the coil connector. Alternatively, a piece of string
could be used to thread the coil cable into the shafts.
•
Feed the coil cable pull-through into the coil end of the lower shaft and out through the
top (hinge end) of the upper shaft. Feed the coil cable until the coil connector is exposed.
•
Insert the pin coil cable into the end of the upper shaft so that the pin engages into the
turns of the coil cable within the shaft. Turn the pin counter clockwise to lock it into
place.
