position when the rear wheels are centred. Re-
set the chain on the steering columns sprocket
or adjust the rear fixture (1) for the steering

Hold the cables with, for example, a wrench
when mounting so that they do not twist.
Attach the new wires. Once the new wires are
in place, check the wire tension (see Checking
and adjusting steering wires).
