that all cables (steering, auger, and drive) are properly
routed and not pinched or kinked before pivoting
handle upward.

each side of the lower handle. Pull up and back on
upper handle as shown in Figure 3-1. Align upper
handle with the lower handle. Make certain the
springs at the lower end of the auger and drive
cables are securely hooked into their respective
actuator bracket.

two star knobs and carriage bolts removed earlier.
See Figure 3-2.

shift rod connector down over the end of the lower
shift rod. Tap the connector until the lower rod is
