3. Installing the Ropes (if applicable):
Your rope TWS
comes equipped with ropes and pulleys mounted to
®
retractable risers. Verify that the risers are locked in the upright position
prior to proceeding.
A. Using the double-ended clips, clip the neoprene handles to the ends of
the ropes.
B. With the spring bar in first gear and the gear block in the first hole in
the track, place the handles over the shoulder posts.
C. Thread the loose ends of the ropes down through the pulleys mounted
on the risers at the head end of the TWS frame (end opposite the footbar)
looping the ends back toward the carriage.
D. Thread the ends of the ropes through the wire loops and rope cleats
(mounted to the head of the carriage) and through the hole in the carriage
board (immediately in front of the cleat).
E. Let the excess rope hang freely under the carriage.
F. To shorten or lengthen, withdraw the ropes from the cleats, adjust to the
desired length, and press back into the cleats. Push any slack rope down
through the hole in the carriage board.
Folding the Retractable Risers for Half-Cadillac Mode:
To fold the retractable risers, first loosen the black knobs that lock the
risers to the chrome plates at the head end of the frame. Turn the knobs
counterclockwise until the springs push the knob away from the wood.
Once both knobs are released, fold the left side ('left' is defined as the
operator's left when he or she is lying on the carriage) riser down until it
rests on the aluminum plate located just below the right riser.
Subsequently, the right side riser can be folded. Once the risers are in their
folded position, rotate the pulleys so they are parallel to the head end of
the TWS.
To return to their functional position, rotate each riser to its
upright position making sure that the sides are directly in line with
the sides of the chrome plates. Push the respective black knob in -
compressing its spring - and turn clockwise. Tighten each knob until there
is no free play in the riser.
