1. Remove the four screws connecting the top plate to the Qwerk and carefully lift the top plate. Put screws aside for later use.


2. Do this step only if you have Qwerk 1.1. After you have removed the top plate, locate the small power limiting resistor R5 near the power switch on the Qwerk.


3. Do this step only if you have Qwerk 1.1. With a #00 Phillips screwdriver, gently turn the resistor counterclockwise until you feel resistance. Be careful not to turn the resistor past the point where you feel resistance.


4. Locate the two center holes in the top plate.


5. Place the hub on the shorter end of an L-bracket and secure both to the two center holes in the top plate with two 2-56x3/8” screws, two lock washers that go on the two screws on the underside of the top plate, followed by 2-56 nuts. Tighten the screws with a crescent wrench and a #1 Phillips screwdriver.


6. Reattach the top plate to the Qwerk and secure it with the four screws set aside in Step 1.


7. Secure the 6” aluminum tube to the hub with a cap screw and the 3/32” hex key.


8. Secure the top half of the stem to the top of the 6” aluminum tube using a cap screw and the 3/32” hex key.
