ISSUE:
There is a small connector which connects the upper rotor to the balance bar. If this connector is lost, broken, or
disconnected, a replacement is included with your Triumph. Follow the replacement steps listed below.
1. The connector is attached by 2 simple ball joints. Remove the broken connector by pulling it away from
the axle of the main rotors. Once removed, the 2 ball joints will be exposed.
2. Install the new connector following the reverse of step 1. Gently but firmly press the connector into position,
connecting the upper rotor and the balance bar. The connector will just snap into the 2 ball joints as shown.
