Shake the TorqueMaster® spring tube assembly gently to extend the winding shafts out about 5” on each side. For single spring applications, there will be no left hand spring in the TorqueMaster® spring tube assembly. Lift the TorqueMaster® spring tube assembly and rest it on top of the flag angles.

Starting on the right hand side,
Position the TorqueMaster® spring tube assembly so the cam peak is pointing straight up. Slide the cable drum over the winding shaft until the cable drum seats against the Torque- Master® spring tube assembly.
The winding shaft must extend past the cable drum far enough to expose the splines and the grooves. Align the winding shaft grooves with the round notch in the flag angle.
For double spring applications: Repeat for left hand side.
For single spring applications:
NOTE: On single spring applications, take care in handling the loose winding shaft (left hand side), so that it does not slide back into the TorqueMaster® spring tube assembly.
