same way, using the 5/16"x1-1/4" clevis pin.

Bring arm sections together. Find two pairs of holes
that line up and join sections. Select holes as far
apart as possible to increase door arm rigidity.

If holes in curved arm are above holes in straight
arm, disconnect straight arm. Cut about 6" (15 cm)
from the solid end. Reconnect to trolley with cut end
down as shown.
