ATTACH THE COIL
1. Confirm that the 2× Coil Washers are in the
Yoke Bracket on the top of the Coil�
2. Slide the Shaft Yoke over the Yoke Bracket, align the
holes, then insert the Bolt through the Yoke and the
Yoke Bracket and tighten by hand� Do not use tools to
tighten, over‑tightening may damage the shaft�
EXTEND THE SHAFTS
3. Open the Upper and Lower Camlocks�
4. Extend the Shafts to their approximate detecting
length� Do not extend beyond the red line�
5. Close the Camlocks�
If the Shafts are slipping, they can be adjusted�
See
"Tightening the Camlocks" on page 73 �
ATTACH THE ARMREST
6. Unlock the Armrest Lock�
7. Slide the Armrest onto the Armrest Rail�
8. Lock the Armrest, then insert your arm into the Armrest
to check the position is correct and adjust as needed —
the armrest should be positioned just below your elbow�
If you are left‑handed, you can reverse the Armrest
Strap so that it fastens away from your body for
improved comfort�
CONNECT THE COIL
9. Wrap the Coil Cable around the Shaft enough times to
take up the slack, but so the Coil can still tilt
without restriction�
10. With the arrow on the Coil Connector at the top, align
the Coil Connector with the Interface on the back of the
Control Pod� Plug‑in and tighten the Retaining Ring�
