Installing Splitboom - Shindaiwa 230PH Owner's/Operator's Manual

Installing a Splitboom
1. Place the 230PH/230PHs Multipurpose
Engine and the Splitboom attachment
on a clean flat surface so that both
assemblies fit end to end. The 230PH/
230PHs assembly should be facing up,
and the Splitboom should be positioned
with the locking hole in the tube end
facing up.
CAUTION!
Keep the open ends of the tubes clean
and free of impurities.
2. Slip off the protective covers from
the ends of both tubes and loosen the
coupler screw knob.
3. Insert the tube of Splitboom into the
coupler with the tool decal facing up,
until the line of the decal is flush with
the end of the coupler. Twist the tool
back and forth until you are sure it
snaps in place by the coupler latch.
