lightly tighten the screw (5).
8. Assemble the remaining handle kit components to the other
handle side leg (2) according to steps 1 through 7 and mount the
side leg to the mounting holes on the opposite side of the
Controller.
9. Insert a lock washer (10) and handle screw (11) through the
mounting hole at the end of one handle side leg (2) and lightly
tighten to handle (12). Repeat this step for the other handle side
leg, then secure both screws (11). (The mounting screw for the
first handle side leg may have to be loosened slightly to allow the
second handle side leg to be mounted.)

12. Press in both buttons (7) and rotate the handle assembly. The
assembly should rotate up and down easily. When the buttons (7)
are released, the handle should lock into a detente position and
remain there. If the handle does not move easily, or if it does not
lock into a detente position, an error may have been made during
the assembly. Take a small straight blade screw driver and
carefully remove the covers (13), loosen all screws and remove
the handle assembly from the Controller. Reassemble the handle
side leg assemblies according to steps 1 through 7.
