Handle
1. Remove any packaging material from the upper handle.
2. Remove the lower plastic wing nut, belleville washer and
carriage bolt from each side of the upper handle; then raise
the upper handle assembly until it snaps over the lower
handle. See Figure 3-1.
3. Looking beneath the handle panel, check that all of the
cables (steering, auger, shift, and drive) are properly routed
and not pinched or kinked. Make certain the springs at the
lower end of the auger and drive cables are securely hooked
into their respective actuator bracket. See Fig. 3-10.
4. Secure the upper handle and lower handle with the two
wing nuts, belleville washers, and carriage bolts removed
earlier. Tighten the two wing nuts already installed in the
upper holes to firmly secure the upper handle and support
tubes. See Figure 3-2.
