ATTACHING THE HANDLE ASSEMBLY
(HardwareA)
1. Place right handle in position against the snow

snow thrower. Secure bottom hole in handle to
snow thrower using hex bolt 3/4" long and lock
washer. See figure 1. Do not tighten at this time.

bolt 1-3/4" long and lock washer. Do not tighten at
this time.

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

5. Fasten the right side of the handle panel by insert-
ing two carriage bolts through the handle and han-
dle 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 2.
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.
