INSTALL THE IDLER PULLEY

1. Lay the chain/cable beside the rail, as shown. Grasp the end of the cable
and pass approximately 12" (30 cm) of cable through the window. Allow it
to hang until Assembly Step 4.
2. Remove the tape from the idler pulley. The inside center should be pre-
greased. If dry, regrease to ensure proper operation.
3. Place the idler pulley into the window as shown.
4. Insert the idler bolt from the top through the rail and pulley. Tighten with
a 3/8" lock washer and nut underneath the rail until the lock washer is
compressed.
5. Rotate the pulley to be sure it spins freely.
6. Locate the rail tab. The rail tab is near the idler pulley on the front rail
section. Use a flat head screwdriver and lift the rail tab until the tab is
vertical (90º).
