Secure the left turn trigger cable to the lower
handle using the other cable tie. Make sure to
route the cable tie below the auger drive cable
so that when the trigger cable is secured by the
cable tie, the auger drive cable is left outside the
cable tie. Trim excess ends from each cable tie.
NOTE: The right side cable tie must be used to keep
cable from coming in contact with the moving shift
arm from the transmission.
Lamp Wiring
Wrap the wire from the lamp down the right
