4. Holding the axle (removed in step 2) in one hand, and the foot pad in the other, line up
the large hole in the side of the bracket (under the foot pad) with the hole in the bushing
housing and insert the axle all the way until the washer is flush against the bracket. You
may have to wiggle the axle while moving the footpad slightly to get the axle to go in.
5. Take the bolt that you removed from the axle in step 2 AND INSTALL THE NEW
ANTI-ROTATION BRACKET , then thread it into the hole in the axle. Tighten the bolt
using two wrenches provided. You have to put a wrench on both axle bolts to tighten
firmly.
6. Align the hole in the end of the connecting arm (pivoting rod end) with the hole in the
bracket of the handle bar. The rod end should be on the inside of the handle bar bracket.
Take one of the 1-1/4 X 5/16 bolts and install it through the handle bar bracket and the
rod end. Install a flat washer and Nylon nut on the bolt and tighten firmly using a wrench
on the nut and one on the bolt.
7. Repeat for the right side foot pad/connecting arm.
8. Install the plastic covers over the connection of the rod end and handle bar. The front
inside hole in the plastic uses a self-tapping screw and the two rear holes use the 3/8
machine screws (short). There is a short Phillips screw driver provided for installing the
inside screws.
9. Install the two wheel covers using the four 5/8 machine screws (long).
10. Install the locking pins for the adjustable footpads into the desired holes (XE350, XE550
