there are little nut type hooks on the levers that hook the top down to the windshield frame. tighten these little hooks by turning to the right (righty-tighty, lefty-loosey). BUT, not too tight...these are pot metal and will break if tightened too much. the little levers on each side of the back seat rest are to UNlock the top when it is down, so that you can close the top. push down on the lever and lift up slightly on the top frame, then repeat on the other side......then lift up on the top and close it. also, there is a lever BEHIND the back seat rest on the left side...pull up on this lever to lay the back seat rest down for hauling cargo.
