remove the power switch and the double cord
clamp (Figure 2). Let the switch hang to the
side for now.
Note: The switch is fastened in place with
one screw above the box and one below it.
Avoid removing the two screws on the face
of the switch box, as this will open the switch
box cover, exposing the wiring inside.

Figure 2. With help from another person, lift
the upper arm off the base casting.
IMPORTANT: Make sure all mating surfaces
of riser block are clean before proceeding.
