10. Hold the bracket in place then lightly tighten the four cross-head screws (No 10 x
3/4 in). As you do this, make sure the bracket is correctly aligned.
11. Replace the wheel, making sure that you locate the pin in the correct slot (slot 1 or
slot 2).
12. Turn the wheel with the clutch off to check that the bracket is correctly positioned
and aligned.
Note:
If the wheel is bent or the wheel drive is off center, the pin will move up and down in the
back plate slot. As long as the pin does not hit the top or bottom of the slot, this pin movement will
not affect the drive unit's performance.
13. When you have checked alignment, fully tighten all four screws.
