Engaging the PTA™
1.Pull the PTA™ lever (Figure 7) against the handlebar and hold it there. This unlocks the axle (Figure 8).
2.Push down on the handlebar to tip the nose of the machine a few inches off the ground. Balancing the weight of the machine on the wheels makes it easier to pivot the front of the trimmer to the left.
3.While continuing to hold the PTA™ lever down, grip the sides of the handlebar pulling up with the right hand and pushing down with the left, swinging the front of the trimmer to the left.
4.Release the PTA™ lever. This will lock the axle in PTA™ mode (Figure 8).
