Mount

Attach the mounting bracket and Spirator assembly to the hatch door using the provided hardware.

Fix

Remove the rubber band from the cable end and fix the cable termination to a fixed location near the door lock, ensuring a horizontal pull direction.

 

Wind

Pre-wind the Spirator to set the proper tension load (recommended: 1–2 wraps).
