STEP 3
Insert the spring and plunger into the camlock body with hole pointing up and towards the center of the frame. Compress the spring, revealing the hole. Insert the handle and turn clockwise until hand tight. Rotate the handle to the disengaged position. Use pliers to fully tighten the handle.
STEP 4
Install rubber cap. Cycle the handle to and from the engaged and disengaged position to ensure the handle functions smoothly. Add 1-2 pumps of grease to the grease zerk.
