Replacing the Steering Cables

1. Loosen the steering cables' rear fixture (1).
2. Remove the frame plate.
3. Loosen the steering cables' front fixture (2) by the steering chain (3) and pull out the steering cables
through the frame.
Note If the old cables are whole, the new cables can be attached to the old when they are pulled out
through the frame. The new cables will then automatically sit in the proper position.
Hold the cables with, for example, a wrench when mounting so that they do not twist.
Ensure that the steering wheel is in the centre position when the rear wheels are centred. Re-set the chain
on the power steering sprocket or adjust the rear fixture for the steering cables (1) as needed.

10. Pull the power steering (6) upwards and move the lower section backwards in order to force off the
steering chain (3).
11. To fit the power steering, follow the instructions in the reverse order. The steering column's two drive
