ASSEMBLING THE HANDLEBARS

Before you can operate the unit, you must install the

handlebars.

1. When you unpack the unit, loosen and remove the

two knobs and washers from the inside of the lower

bars (Fig. 1).

2. Hold the handle bar in the position shown in Figure 1

and slide it onto the lower bars making sure that the

ends of the handlebar are on the inside of the lower

bars.

3. Align the holes in the handlebar with the holes in the

lower bars and insert the bolts through those holes.

4. Check to make sure the bail is assembled into switch

assembly (Fig. 1).

NOTE: Take care not to pinch the switch cable when

positioning the handlebars.

5. Place the washers on the bolts, then screw the two

knobs onto them.

6. Tighten the knobs to secure the handlebars in place.

NOTE: Do not over-tighten the knobs.

7. Clip the switch cable to the cable restraint on the

lower bar as shown in the inset of Figure 1.

8. Remove the banding once the upper handle is

assembled to the lower handle (Fig. 1).

USING THE CORD RETAINER

There is an extension cord retainer to prevent the

extension cord from disconnecting during use. The

retainer hangs from the cord guide bar.

NOTE: Do not plug the extension cord into the power

source receptacle until the cord is connected to

the cord retainer and plugged into the unit.

To use the cord retainer:

1. Fold the extension cord in half, forming a tight loop

near the receptacle.

2. Push the loop through the bottom hole in the retainer

(Fig. 2).

3. Slide the loop over the retaining clip and pull down

until the cord fits snugly (Fig. 2).

NOTE: Use a UL-approved extension cord. A 100-foot,

14-gauge cord is recommended. A 50-foot, 16-

gauge cord is acceptable.

Both the cord retainer and guide bar restrain the

extension cord and keep it out of the way at all times,

safely to the side of the operator.

The extension cord and retainer will slide on the guide

bar as the unit is moved to the left and right. Connect

your extension cord to the unit as shown in Figure 3.
