CLOSER INVESTIGATION REVEALED THE HAT SECTION WHICH HOLDS THE RELEASE CABLE HANDLE WAS INSTALLED UPSIDE DOWN APPARENTLY FROM THE FACTORY. NO EVIDENCE OF EVER BEING REMOVED. THE RELEASE CABLE HAD TO PASS BELOW THE MS20392-2 FLAT HEAD PIN WHICH GIVES IT AN 'S' TURN WHEN HAT SECTION 0812500-1 IS UPSIDE DOWN. HAT SECTION WAS TURNED OVER, NO NEW HOLES REQUIRED, ONLY DRILLING RIVETS OUT AND REPLACING, AND CABLE LENGTH BECAME ADEQUATE.
