Heart Grip Replacement
Remove the Handgrips
1. Pull and twist the handgrips free of the rail tubing. If they will not slide off the tubing,
use a knife or scissors to cut the rubber along its length, then slide the handgrips off
the tubing.
2. Continue to pull each of the handgrip cables though the gooseneck and the display rail
until they emerge with the nylon cord attached.
3. Remove the nylon cord from each cable and discard the handgrips.
Replace the Handgrips
1. Remove the new handgrips from their package. Mark cable connector of the handgrip
that is to be on the left-hand side.
2. Tie each nylon cord securely to the end of a handgrip cable, just below the connector.
3. For each handgrip cable, pull the related nylon cord out of the gooseneck, drawing the
cable up though the gooseneck.
4. Before each handgrip is drawn to the rail tubing, lubricate the inside of the rubber, until
the rubber sleeve fits snugly against the tubing joint. Pull the remainder of the cable out
of the gooseneck during this step.
5. Bring the cable ends together and apply a cable tie approximately 12 inches from the
ends.
6. Wrap Velcro strips (furnished) around both cables approximately 2-1/2 to 3 inches from
the cable ends.
7. Connect the cable connectors to the mating connectors on the rear of the display
panel.
8. Press Velcro strips on the cables down onto the Velcro strip on the rear of the display
panel.
