Secure the upper handle and lower handle with the
two plastic wing nuts, cupped washers and carriage
bolts previously removed. Attach these hardware
on the lower hole in the handles. See Figure 3.
NOTE: On model 633E, attach the wing nut, cupped
washer and carriage bolt in the lower hole on the right
side only. The hardware in the left lower hole will be
attached later.
Tighten the two wing nuts already in place on the
upper holes and secure the handles firmly. See
Figure 3.
Slide the shift rod connector down over the end of
the lower shift rod. See Figure 4. Tap the connector
until it locks on the lower shift rod.

underneath the fuel tank. See Figure 6 inset.

Remove the wing nut and cupped washer from the
eyebolt on the chute directional control. Leave the

Insert the eyebolt through the lower hole on the left
side of handle. Secure with cupped washer
(cupped side against the handle panel) and wing
nut. See Figure 7. Do not tighten at this time.
