Shake the TorqueMaster
®
spring tube assembly gently to extend the winding shafts out
about 5” on each side. For single spring applications, there will be no left hand spring in the
TorqueMaster
®
spring tube assembly. Lift the TorqueMaster
®
spring tube assembly and rest it
on top of the flag angles.
NOTE: Cable drum assemblies are marked right and left hand. Cable drums and TorqueMas-
ter
®
spring tube assembly is cam shaped to fit together only one way.
Starting on the right hand side, pre-wrap the cable drum with the counterbalance lift cable
1-1/2 wraps, as shown.
Position the TorqueMaster
®
spring tube assembly so the cam peak is pointing straight up.
Slide the cable drum over the winding shaft until the cable drum seats against the Torque-
Master
®
spring tube assembly.
The winding shaft must extend past the cable drum far enough to expose the splines and the
grooves. Align the winding shaft grooves with the round notch in the flag angle.
FOR DOUBLE SPRING APPLICATIONS: Repeat for left hand side.
FOR SINGLE SPRING APPLICATIONS: Pre-wrap the left hand cable drum with the counter-
balance lift cable 1-1/2 wraps and insert the loose winding shaft into the cable drum, prior to
sliding the cable drum over the TorqueMaster
®
spring tube assembly.
NOTE: On single spring applications, take care in handling the loose winding shaft (left hand
side), so that it does not slide back into the TorqueMaster
®
spring tube assembly.
