Universal AutoStop™

Operation Manual & Installation Instructions

292-2215 Rev A Page 7 of 12 10/30/13

The AutoStop™ and the inside of the receiver tube should be cleaned and lubricated with silicon

spray at 1,000 mile intervals to prevent the buildup of road dust preventing the action to slide with

ease. The AutoStop™ should be disassembled, thoroughly cleaned and lubricated every 10,000

miles. At this time the actuating cable should be replaced if there are any signs of cable wear.

DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

If your AutoStop™ becomes sluggish or you are in need of replacing a broken part, the following

disassembly instructions will step you through how to dismantle, clean and reassemble your

AutoStop™.

1. Remove the AutoStop™ from the receiver hitch. Remove the hex bolt. (Figure 9)

2. Loosen the set screw in the cable anchor and remove the 5/8" rod going through the AutoStop™

tube. NOTE: You may need to tap out the 5/8" rod with a punch.

3. At this point, slide the pulleys and adjusting bolt assembly out of the AutoStop™ tube. NOTE: Use

caution when removing the pulleys. The cable is coiled around the pulleys several times and may

unwind when removed from of tube. This is normal, reassembly will be explained in a later section.

4. Remove the round head screw holding the cable clamp, then pull the cable assembly out of the

AutoStop™ tube.

5. Clean all parts with a mild solvent such as WD-40 and be sure to dry all parts. Use a brush to

insure the inside of the AutoStop™ tube is clean as well.
