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 (Figure I).

| |
I | |||
| of the upper | ||
| handle (3), slide | ||
| the lever bolt |
| |
• | through the holes. |

Slide the washer |
| ||
| over the bolt of the |

| assemble the |
| |
| entire assembly |
| |

| |
Rotate the upper |
| ||
| handle into its |
| |
• | operating position. |
| |
Close the lever. If it is too tight or too | |||
| loose, open the lever and the nut to | ||
| adjust the clamping. Check the levers | ||
| by closing them. They should be tight | ||
| enough so the handles are held firmly, | ||
| but loose enough so the levers can be | ||
| fully closed. Adjust by opening the lever | ||
| and turning the nut until the handles are | ||
| secured. |

SECURING THE MOTOR CABLE (FIGURE J)
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.
The motor cable (22) has to be fixed to the handles using the cable restraints (23) that are already attached to the handle. To clip the cable to the handle:
• Place the handles in operating position, see “Attaching Lower Handle” section.
• 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.
