- Carefully remove the shoulder bracket cover by tipping it forward and gently flexing it to slide it around the inner link tube.
- Unscrew the 3 Phillips screws on the elbow trim strip and gently slide the elbow trim strip off the elbow, taking care to bend the strip as little as possible.
- Remove the cradle.
- Fully unscrew the elbow cam lever from the thumb screw and remove the cam lever.
- Rotate the outer link stub so it points straight up away from the elbow.
- Unscrew the 2 Phillips screws on each elbow cover and remove the covers.
