ATTACHING THE HANDLE ASSEMBLY

(Hardware A)

1.Place right handle (A) in position against the snow thrower so the ﬂat side of the handle is against the snow thrower. Secure bottom hole in handle to snow thrower using hex bolt 3/4" long and lock washer. See Figure 4. Do not tighten at this time.

2.Place handle tab over the upper hole in handle so the curve in the handle tab matches the curve in the handle. Secure to the snow thrower using hex bolt 1-3/4" long and lock washer. Do not tighten at this time.

3.Attach the left handle (A) in the same manner. Do not tighten at this time.

4.Place the handle panel (B) in position between the handles. To hold the handle panel in place, depress both clutch grips against the handles. While continuing to hold the right hand grip, release the left hand grip (the auger clutch lock will keep left hand grip engaged). See Figure 4.

5.Fasten right side of the handle panel by inserting two carriage bolts through handle and handle panel (bolts must go through both the plastic and metal parts of the handle panel). Secure with cupped washers (cupped side against handle panel) and hex nuts. See Figure 5.

6.Secure the left side of the handle panel in the same manner.

7.Tighten the four hex bolts used to attach the bottom of the handles to the snow thrower frame.

ATTACHING THE CLUTCH CABLES

The “Z” end of the clutch cables are hooked into the clutch grips on each handle. Attach cables as follows.

1.Thread the hex jam nuts all the way up the threaded portion of the “Z” ends of the clutch cables.

2.Make certain all cables are in the grooves of the cable roller guides. The two roller guides are located in the lower rear of the unit, one on each side.

3.Thread the cable onto the threaded portion of the “Z” end until there is no slack in the cable, but the cable is NOT tight. Do not overtighten cable. See Figure 6.

WARNING: If cable is tightened so there is tension on the cable with the clutch grip released, the safety features of the snow thrower may be overridden.

4.When correct adjustment is reached, tighten the hex jam nut against the bottom portion of the cable to lock it in position.
