ASSEMBLY
WARNING: If received assembled,
repeat all steps to ensure your unit is properly
assembled and all fasteners are secure.
Examine parts for damage. Do not use dam-
aged parts.
NOTE: If you need assistance or find parts
missing or damaged, call 1-800-554-6723.
TOOLS REQUIRED
S Hex wrench (provided)
HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY
DANGER: RISK OF CUT. To avoid
serious injury, the barrier portion of the han-
dlebar must be installed as shown on the up-
per tube of the powerhead to provide a barrier
between operator and the spinning blade. At-
tach tube clamp above arrow on safety warn-
ing decal on the upper tube (powerhead end
of unit). Ensure handlebar is positioned on
handlebar clamp between the arrows on the
handlebar decal.
NOTE: The tube clamp base has four
spacer tabs attached. These tabs are pro-
vided to adapt this attachment for use with
powerheads that have a 1" diameter upper
tube (the tube clamp will not tighten down se-
curely on the 1" diameter upper tube without
using these spacer tabs). The tabs must be
broken off completely before use and placed
over the screw holes on the clamp base.
These tabs are not needed for powerheads
with a 7/8" upper tube.
