position it over the lower handle.

not pinched between
the handle sections.

Installing the Wheel Clutch
Cable Ends

1.

Unwrap the

cable ends from
the lower handle.

2.

Route either

the left or right
cable end over the
lower handle and
insert the cable
end into the hole in
the corresponding
wheel clutch 
lever (A).

A

3.

Remove the

nut and washer
from the handle,
attach the cable
clamp on the cable
(A) to the handle,
and hand tighten
the nut.

A

Important: Ensure that the curved side of the cable
clamp is against the handle and that the cable is
routed below the clamp bolt. The cable must be in a
straight line from the cable clamp to the point where it
attaches to the wheel clutch lever.

4.

Pull the cable jacket down gently until the wheel

clutch lever is down and the slack is out of the cable,
then tighten the cable clamp nut securely.

5.

Squeeze the

lever fully, then
check the gap (A)
between the
bottom of the
handle and the
wheel clutch lever
end.

A

Note: The gap should be approximately the thickness
of a pencil (1/4 inch or 6 mm). If it is greater, loosen
the cable clamp nut, slide the cable jacket up slightly,
tighten the cable clamp nut, and check the gap again.

6.

Repeat steps 2 through 5 for the other cable.
