INSTALL THE SHOULDER RESTS
1. Note the two protruding studs on the bottom of the shoulder
rests. Lower the shoulder rest studs into the keyholes and
slide away from the carriage pad. See Figure A.
Note: The shoulder rests can be installed in two positions. One
position is wider, and more comfortable for broad shoulders.
Swap the left and right shoulder rests to change between
standard and wide configurations.
Figure A
2. Now screw the locking shoulder posts onto the exposed bolt
on each shoulder rest. See Figure B.
Figure B
Using the Locking Shoulder Posts:
Turn the posts clockwise to tighten them and lock the
shoulder rests into position. Over tightening the posts will
make them difficult to remove, they should be snug but not
too tight. To remove the shoulder rests, turn the post counter
clockwise 1-2 turns and gently slide the shoulder rests toward
the carriage.
Figure C shows the storage position for the shoulder rests.
Note the key hole slots at the head end of the Allegro frame.

INSTALL THE BLACK
PLUNGER KNOBS
3. Look through the large
threaded hole in the trunnion
and line it up with one of the
holes in the frame.Screw the
plunger knob into the large
hole until it is completely
threaded in.See Figure D.
4. Repeat on other side. Tighten
both plunger knobs securely with the included open end
wrench.
To move the trunnions, pull the ball of the plunger knobs away
from the frame and turn 90° to lock out. To re-engage the
plunger turn the knob until it snaps into one of the holes in
the side of frame.
Note: Make sure both trunnion
plates are locked in the same
horizontal position before
moving on.
INSTALL THE FOOTBAR
5. Pick up the footbar so the
seam of the footbar cover is
away from the carriage pad.
6. While squeezing the footbar
plunger levers, guide the
footbar over the outsides of
the trunnion plates. Align
each footbar pin with the top
hole in the trunnion plate.
While continuing to support the footbar, release the footbar
plunger levers to engage the trunnion plate. Be sure the pins
on both sides are engaged. See Figure E.
