Assemble the Carriage Horizontal Tube with aluminum tube plugs and appropriate plastic tube plug sleeves. The tube plugs can be installed using #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts.
Repeat this step for both Carriage Horizontal Tubes.
Bolt the Carriage Vertical Tubes to the assembled Carriage Horizontal Tubes using the #10-32 x 1 1/2"L bolts When assembled, the #10-32 x 1 1/2"L bolts will sit inside the Elevator Clamping Block.
Make sure to install the Bearing Blocks with only one of the 3/4" OD Radial Bearings. This will allow for an easy installation process.
The two bottom clamping blocks must sit higher up to provide clearance for an extra ratchet plate.
The bushings should be a slip or a light press fit into the vertical carriage tube. Install the bearings into the plates before installing the plates onto the carriage.
Use four #10-32 x 3"L bolts to attach the 1/2" Hex Ratchet Plates onto the carriage assembly.
If you are not using the ratchet plate and are tensioning the string with the #35 Chain Turnbuckle, This step can be skipped.
