I noticed where the fabric tucks under the bottom edge had turned outward from its natural position. It was inacessible to fix properly without being able to access the area mid-cycle. Therefore, I called a tech at the dealer supposedly trained on Crossfires to see if it was ok to let go of the switch midcycle providing acess and learned that indeed it was ok to stop it midcycle. So, with the single activating switch, my question would be how are you going to stop it midcycle if you need to access for any reason, like switch testing or lubrication?
P.S. When I re depressed the switch to finish the cycle, I continued in the direction which I had started to begin with...peace
If you hold the switch longer than the couple of seconds needed to start the automatic operation, it will act as though the Quick Touch Top isn't present. So say you were to hold it until the top is in the middle of it's operation and then let go, it will stop right there... for a few minutes and then the pressure will be released from the hydraulic system and it will fall whatever direction is easiest.

I suspect his free time is spent differently now
Busy is an understatement but you are all welcome over any time to see baby and we can grill up some thick-cut pork chops (weather permitting of course).

It worked.

Actually I could have said 'Maybe'... What's worse than not knowing either way? LOL

Response... Granted

Not interested??? Not true!!!

I see there is interest and I've just read about a dozen PMs (half of them asking if the Quick Touch Top is still available, three from the same person), I'm going to start a list. When it gets to 10 people, I'll do another run of them.

1) Trenzman
2) GregWork
3) barngal
4) deltacrossfirebob
5)

Take care and please don't take my absence as a sign of my disinterest.
