lever and the arm (the rod is reverse-threaded on
one end and so will simultaneously unscrew from
both lever and arm when turned in the one

rod is threaded into the lever and arm as this
determines the height of the lever relative to the
footrest. Unscrew the pivot bolt and remove the
lever, noting the arrangement of the washers

bolt and remove the lever
assembly, noting how it fits (see illustrations
