All Front Loop Handle Models
Make sure the front loop handle is positioned beyond
the minimum handle spacing line, as shown on the
handle spacing decal on the drive shaft housing. The
minimum handle spacing line indicates the minimum
distance between the rear handle and front handle, and
helps ensure the operator’s hands are far enough apart
to maintain good control of the unit.
Final Assembly Check List
After assembly, check your unit to make sure guards,
shields, protective devices, and all other parts are
properly and securely assembled and working cor-
rectly. See the Operator’s Manual for assembly details
and part locations for your unit.
