INSTALLATION
| 1. | See Figure 1. If necessary, cut the plastic rain seal away from the two pre-cut screw holes in the backrest pad (1) to prevent the plastic from catching in the threads. | |
| 2. | Place the mounting bracket (B) against the spacers (2), so that the holes of the mounting bracket align with the spacers. |
NOTE
To avoid misalignment and cross threading of the screws, start all three screws into the backrest before tightening.
| 3. | Insert a screw (3) from the kit through one of the holes in the bracket and then through one of the spacers. Carefully thread it 4-5 turns into the mating hole in the backrest pad. Repeat with the other two screws. DO NOT tighten a screw until all three screws have been started. |
NOTE
Spacers must seat squarely against the mounting bracket.
| 4. | Once all three screws have been carefully started into the three holes of the backrest pad, tighten the screws to: Torque: 6.8 N·m (60 in-lbs) backrest pad screws |
