At this point, check how the washers are
positioned between the lower handle cam plates
and bracket to ease reassembly. Place a small
amount of grease on the washer to hold them in
place against the cam plates.
6. Remove cam bolts (socket head shoulder
screws) that secure cam plates. Check
positioning for proper assembly. (Fig 7)

These spacers are located on the two shoulder
bolts to prevent the internal wiring from being torn
by the bolt threads.

handle assembly.

into position while threading bolt through
handle and into spacer. (Fig. 8)

Service Center.
