“AF Series - Trip Lever Assembly”
The assembly of the Trip Lever Link can be dif cult. The proper location of the Trip Lever and Trip Lever Link
is critical for easy assembly of the Bail Arm on the Trip Lever Link. Please follow the below instructions for
step by step assembly of these parts.
Step 1
After you remove the Bail Arm Retaining Ring the Bail Arm will come off of the Rotor. The Trip Lever must be
pushed down so the Trip Lever Link can be above it. The Trip Lever Link will then be resting on the boss of the
rotor with one leg sticking up & the other leg located in the hole of the Pivot Guide

Step 2
The Trip Lever Link is now in place to
slide the hole in the Bail Arm over the leg
on the Trip Lever Link.
Step 3
Slowly lift up & rotate the Bail Arm as you
would when opening the Bail Wire (be care-
ful that the Trip Lever Link does not come
out of the Bail Arm). Once the Trip Lever
Link is rotated past the Trip Lever, press in
on the Bail Arm so the Trip Lever can fall
into the slot in the Bail Arm. If the assembly
is correct you will feel spring tension on
the bail wire. You may then replace the Bail
Arm Retaining Ring.
