RAISING THE UPPER HANDLE
1. Loosen the hand knob on each side of the handle. See Figure 4. Remove packing material (if any).
2. Squeeze the control handle against the upper handle. Hold it in this position as you raise the handle.
3. Pull the handle up into the operating position. Be certain not to pinch the cable.
4. Tighten the hand knobs.
Figure 4
ATTACHING THE CONTROL CABLE
Figure 5
1. The control cable may already be attached to the control handle. Complete steps two and three if cable is
loose.
2. Route the control cable over the lower handle. Place the end of the cable into the lower hole in the control
housing as shown in Figure 5. Push the plastic fitting until it locks into the control housing.
3. Lift the control handle up, and hook the “Z” end of the control cable into the
bottom
hole in the control
handle, from the outside to the inside (some models use only one hole). If necessary, use a pair of pliers to
pull up on the end of the cable to obtain slack in order to hook it into the control handle. Hold the “Z” fitting
with the pliers, not the cable, to avoid damaging the cable. (See inset - Figure 5.)
NOTE:
The upper hole in the control handle provides for adjustment in belt tension. If you have only one hole in
the control handle, refer to Belt Tension Adjustment Section of this manual.
