toward the arm bar, must be rotated in the direction of increasing spring 
torque and forced against the flat surface between the actuating pawl shaft 
holes. 

14. After aligning the holes in the arm and the pawl, start the threaded end of the 

actuating pawl shaft (50-3-9) through the aligned holes. Carefully force the pin 
out of the actuating pawl spring with the actuating pawl shaft.  Ease the spring 
onto the shaft as it is advanced. Some models have a spacer between the 
actuating pawl and the actuating arms. 

15. Securely tighten the actuating pawl shaft. 

16. Rotate the actuating pawl in the direction of increasing spring tension until it 

reaches a stop. Using flexible wire, fasten the actuating pawl to the actuating 
arm cross head. 

17. Slide the actuating arms between the frame legs. The straight edge of the 

arm will be up. 

18. Start the wheel shaft (50-3-18) through the frame leg from the right. Align the 

right actuating arm and advance the shaft through the arm and halfway 
across the space between frame legs. 

19. Slide the wheels onto the shaft in the original order, advancing the shaft when 

necessary. Make sure to remove any burrs on the wheels or actuating arms. 
Use a medium India stone to remove burrs. 

CAUTION:

 the actuating arms 

are chrome plated and should not be stoned more than is necessary. The 
indent side of the wheels goes on the right. 

20. The wheel shaft ends should be flush with the frame sides. Align the flats on 

the shaft with the set screws (50-3-20) in the frame legs. Securely tighten the 
set screws. 

21. Turn the frame over with the retaining pawl block mill cut facing up and the 

frame legs toward the operator. If the retaining pawl block is in place skip 
instructions 22 through 24. 

22. Slide the retaining pawls (50-3-21) onto the retaining pawl shaft (50-3-22) in 

their original order. The working end of the unit wheel pawl is wider than the 
other pawls and must be placed in the proper position. 

23. Rest the retaining pawl block with the milled cut facing up and toward the 

operator. Rest the retaining pawls with the shaft next to the milled cut and the 
flat pawl ends up and toward the operator. 

24. Mate the retaining pawls with their respective slots. Position the shaft in the 

milled cut with its end flush with the pawl block ends.
