Handlebar Assembly
1. Insert a cotter key pin into the hole on one end of the pivot pin (Figure 3–A).
2. Lower the base of the handlebar into the steering column of the fork assembly (Figure 3–B).
3. Slide pivot pin through mounting holes of the steering column and mounting holes of the handlebar (Figure 3–B).
Pivot pin must be inserted so the cotter key slides into the groove of the steering column mounting hole (Figure 3–C).
4. Direct the handlebar chain into the handlebar and through the center hole in the pivot pin (Figure 3–B2).

5. Insert the second cotter key into the hole on the opposite end of the pivot pin (Figure 4–A).
6. Push down on the steering column lever and hold down to assist in joining the handlebar chain with the lifting
connection lever. Navigate the end of the chain into the groove in the lifting connection lever. Ensure the bottom catch
of the chain is below the lever and seated completely into the groove for a good connection (Figure 4–B).
7. Release the steering column lever, further engaging the handlebar chain with the connection lever (Figure 4–C).
