same manner.
ATTENTION!
When shifting, the leading end of the handle must be raised first. If the trailing
end of the handle is lifted first, the handle will lock up and not shift. Also, you
want to make sure that the turnbuckles are not adjusted so tightly as to not
allow the boxes to drop to their full down position. Once properly adjusted,
tighten the lock nut of each turnbuckle to keep them from moving.

handle to each set of drop boxes.
