Installation Guide
Replacing the clevis mount requires careful attention. While detailed instructions are provided with the product, consulting online video tutorials can be highly beneficial for visual guidance. A pair of pliers may be useful for removing cotter pins.

- Locate the Clevis Mount: Identify the existing plastic clevis mount connected to the motor and the recliner's frame.
- Remove Pins: Carefully remove any cotter pins or retaining clips securing the clevis mount to the motor shaft and the recliner linkage. Keep these pins safe as they may be reused.
