ATTACHING UPPER HANDLE (FIGURE H)

• Remove the handle attachment levers (6), nuts (19), and washers (20) from the handle.

• Line up the holes on the bottom of the upper hand (4) with the holes on the top of the lower handle (5).

NOTE: Make sure the cord is located on the front of both handles. If it is not it may result in the cord tangling and the inability to easily store the mower.

• Slide the lever through the holes.

• Slide the washer over the bolt of the lever and hand-tighten the entire assembly with the nut.

• Rotate the upper handle into its operating position.

• Close the lever. If it is too tight or too loose, open the lever and turn it to adjust the clamping. Check the levers by closing them. You should be able to collapse the upper handle when both levers are loose and the upper handle needs to be tightly held to the lower handle when the levers are closed. Adjust the lever operation by turning the nut while the lever is in the open position until the handle can move and also be secured as described above.

SECURING THE MOTOR CABLE (FIGURE I)

CAUTION: Attach cable so that it does not become stretched or pinched in the joints of the handles during use or folding. This can cause damage to the cord.

To clip the cable to the handle:

• Run the cable up the front of the lower and upper handles.

• Pull back the cable restraint.

• Slide the motor cable under the clip and ensure it is fully held in place by the restraint.
