helper aligns the Roller Bar Pin and Bushing and guides them
into the Roller Bar Pin opening in the Top Bracket, as the Top
Bracket is moved in place. See Figure 8.
Note: It may be helpful to use a mallet to slide the Top Bracket onto the four bolts connected to the two
Arm Clamps, once the bolts have started to slide into the holes. The Roller Bar Assembly with the pin and
