STEP 14 - INSTALL LIFT CABLE
Squeeze the lift trigger and slide the anchor end of the
lift (short) cable into the hole in the trigger. Release
the trigger and guide the cable through the slot in the
bottom of the trigger and trigger housing. Insert the
end of the plastic cable covering into the trigger
housing. See figure 12.
Connect the hooked end of the lift cable into the index
rod, and install the threaded cable adjuster into the
notch in the top of the index bracket, placing a nut on
each side of the notch. See figure 12.
Adjust the cable adjuster nuts so that when the trigger
is squeezed, the bottom of the index rod raises
enough to release from the latched position. The index
rod should also lower far enough to lock in the latched
position when the trigger is released. See figure 12.
• Attach the lift cable to the lift handle using three cable
ties.
