ASSEMBLY (continued)

HOW TO ASSEMBLE LOWER HANDLES

To identify part numbers, see pages 6 and 27.

1.Use the protective cardboard sleeve to stabilize your tiller. Stand the engine assembly (#8) up.

2.Lay the handle parts within easy reach. You’ll need one of the handle clamps (#38) and one of the lower handles (#3). Note that the lower handles have a short leg on one end. (Picture 1)

3.Fit the handle clamp along the outside of the short leg. Line up the holes on the clamp and the leg.

4.Choose one of the two 3-inch bolts (#36). Slide it through the first set of holes — near the elbow where the lower handle curves. (Picture 2)

5.Now slide the other lower

handle onto the 3-inch bolt. (Picture 3.) Fit the other clamp onto this other handle’s short leg. Add a nut and tighten finger tight.

6.Locate the worm gear housing. It starts just above — and extends down through — the tiller’s red fender guard. You’ll notice that there’s a recessed channel on either side of the housing’s top. (Picture 4.)

7.Take the lower handles that you’ve just put together. Slide them into the two recessed channels.

!Make sure you insert them from the rear of the tiller (gasoline tank faces the operator) . . . so that the bolt fits along the back of the housing. (Picture 5)

8.Slide the second 3-inch bolt through the second set of holes in the short legs. Add a nut and tighten finger tight.
