box wrench, hold nut (20) and rotate retainer wrench counterclockwise until the nut is flush with the
end of the disc retainer threaded stem. Grasp the box bottom (ii) firmly and apply forward pressure
on the retainer wrench. This will permit lever (18) to drop down. Forward pressure can be maintained
by placing the knurled end of the retainer wrench in the palm of the hand, placing the thumb under-
neath the box bottom air intake, and placing the index and middle finger over the box bottom rim. Lift
up and remove lever (18) from the grooved interior sections of the box bottom.
