Front Handle, Lower Handle, and Cover
1. Prior to installing the button head cap screws,
clean the internal and external threads and apply
a small amount of thread-locking compound, such
as Loctite 242 Threadlocker or equivalent, to the
threads in the mount plate (40) and also to the
screw threads. Follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for applying and curing.
2. Locate the front handle in the appropriate
position and secure the top of the handle with two
1/4–20 x .750 button head cap screws (38) and the
bottom with one 1/4–20 x .625 button head cap
screw (43).
3. Locate the lower handle in the appropriate position
and secure the front with one 1/4–20 x 1.5 button
head cap screw (3) and lock nut (4). Secure the rear
of the lower handle to the end of the cast handle,
using two 1/4–20 x .625 button head cap screws (43).
4. Install the cover (52) over the standoffs (46) and
secure in place with two cover knobs (53).
Chain Brake Assembly
1. Install the spool (77) into the spool bore, ensuring
that the holes through the spool align with the fluid
passages in the bore. Install the retaining ring (80)
into the ring groove on the end of the spool.
2. Install the lever (81) over the end of the spool so
that when the lever is rotated toward the handle, the
spool rotates within the bore. Secure in place using
one #10–32 x .38 button head cap screw.
3. Install the z-bend end of the push-pull cable (70)
into the hole in the lever and secure the cable
assembly to the mount plate (40) using two
1/4–20 x .25 button head cap screws (63).
4. Secure the bracket (64) and rod assembly to the
mount plate using two 1/4–20 x .38 button head
cap screws (66). If the rod, spring, hex nuts, and
bracket were disassembled, reassemble and adjust
according to the dimensions in the figure below.

(68). Secure the front shroud (39) and two washers
(67) to the mount plate using one .372 dia. x 1.25
socket head shoulder bolt (71).
6. With the shroud in the forward position, attach the
toggle (74) to the end of the rod (62), using one
#8–32 x .75 socket head cap screw (75) and one
#8–32 hex lock nut (76).
7. Pull the shroud (40) rearward to lock in place and
tighten the locking screw on the Bowden pin (68).
