NOTE: The bolt, washer and wing nut need to be
removed from the D-handle before installing.

so that the handle slants towards the shaft grip.
The squared bolt hole in the handle is to the right.

the handle. Place the washer on the bolt, and
screw the wing nut onto the bolt. Do not tighten
until you make the handle adjustment.

top of the shaft housing. Place it a minimum of 6
inches (15.24 cm) from the end of the shaft grip.
4. While holding the unit in the operating position,
position the D-handle to the location that provides
you the best grip. See Figure 2.
