5.The installation of the remaining components is much easier if the inner and outer springs (12 & 13) are compressed and caged. This can be done with a short piece of wire, or even a paper clip. The springs should be compressed so that their ends are approximately one inch apart.

6.Place the spring support (14) inside the caged spring assembly. Then insert the springs into the roller assembly (15). The curved ends of the springs fit over the small bar directly behind the roller.

7.In order to install the lever shaft (4), the roller assembly, with its springs and spring support, and the washers (5 & 7) must be aligned. This can be done by resting the ET-2treadle on its side, with the smaller ear of the treadle facing up. Insert the washers as shown in Figure 4. Washer (5) has the larger diameter (.520"). While holding the roller assembly in place, push the lever shaft through the treadle ears.

8.With the ET-2treadle on its side, as mentioned above, the lever shaft should protrude from the treadle with its snap ring groove visible. Secure the lever shaft with its snap ring (8).

9.Turn the ET-2treadle upright. Place the potentiometer

(2) in the position shown in Figure 4, with its connector facing the rear of ET-2treadle. Secure the potentiometer with its screws (3). Torque to 20 inch pounds (+/-5).

10.Install the treadle cover (1) and cable assembly as shown in Figure 4. Clip the wire from the spring assembly so that the straight end of the springs rest against the underside of the treadle.

11.Make sure the ET-2treadle has smooth, even treadle movement. Also, perform Operational Test steps 3-7 before installing the ET-2treadle.

12.Install the ET-2treadle on the vehicle.
