WARNING:
On some units, the D-handle may be pre-installed. In this
case you must loosen screws and adjust the handle to fit
the operator. Go to step 4 if the D-handle is pre-installed.
INSTALL AND ADJUST THE D-HANDLE
1. Remove the items that were installed on the D-handle
for shipping.
2. Place the D-handle over the shaft housing and push
it on the boom (Fig. 1).
3, Install the bolt, washer and wing nut. Tighten them.
4. If the D-handle was pre-installed, loosen the wing nut
on it just enough so it is movable.
5. While holding the unit in the operating position,
arrange or rotate the D-handle to the location that
provides you the best grip (Fig. 2).
6. Tighten the wing nut until the D-handle is secure.
