Installing Carriage Assemblies

NOTE: It is recommended that 2 people mount the carriage assemblies onto the tub.
The auto-counterbalancer and carriage assembly are designed for installation on the
upper and lower tub rails. After installation, the assembly will move freely around the tub
until locked in desired position.
1. At the top of the carriage assembly (1) there are two sets of upper guide rail bearing
assemblies (2). Each consists of one single roller bearing with an eccentric shaft (3)
and one double roller bearing (4). Remove both single roller bearings (3) before
mounting carriage assembly (1) onto tub.
2. Place carriage assembly (1) on tub by positioning the lower guide rail bearing (5) onto
the lower guide rail (6).
3. While holding carriage assembly (1) in place onto the upper guide rail (7), re-insert
single roller bearings (2). Do not tighten completely as adjustments will be required.
4. With carriage assembly (1) resting on upper guide rail (7), adjust single roller bearings
(2) to provide 1/8" (3.2mm) clearance between inner tub wall (8) and roller bearing (2).
