components. Instruction sheet P/N 20485 provides further details
for the handle assembly.

CAUTION
The Quick-Pitch™ handle is spring loaded,
personal injury or damage could result from
improper handling or installation. Be careful
when installing this component.
2. On Quick-Pitch™ models, pivot the
Quick-Pitch™ Handle
back (full pitch), (Figure 6). This will relax the spring inside
the handle tube. On either model, spread the handle bar
ends just enough to engage the teeth on the handle tube.
Attach the hand wheel assembly, position handlebar to
desired location, and tighten hand wheel firmly.

2. Feed the throttle cable through the cable housing.
3. Connect the throttle cable to the engine (Figure 8). There
should be a piece of wire installed on the trowel to show
where to route the throttle cable. When connecting the cable
housing, make sure that no more than
1/4" (6.4mm)
of the
cable housing protrudes past the housing clamp on the
engine.
