Procedure
1. Unwrap the Quick Stick and rotate it so that it is
upright and in the center.

cap down (but do not move the Quick Stick) and
rotate the discharge chute until they do.
3. Align the flattened back end of the long chute
control rod with the flattened front end of the short
rod that extends from the control panel so that they
nest together (Figure 9).
