To install the foot pedal, you'll first want to attach the chain to the eye bolt. I did this by clipping off the top of the last link in the chain, bending it around the eye bolt, and twisting it to secure it.

Then screw the eye bolt into the 3/8" x 1/4" coupling nut, and, pushing down the rod so it sticks out the bottom, screw the coupling onto the rod at the cross piece.

With the chain mechanism in place, fashion a pedal and attach it to the chain. I used a piece of OSB and screwed a little hook onto it, and then hooked it onto the chain. This is only temporary, but it works just fine.
