HOW TO ASSEMBLE
LOWER HANDLES
To identify part numbers, see
pages 6 and 18.
1. Open the protective cardboard
sleeve, but leave the engine assembly
(#21) in this cradle to stabilize it
during assembly. (Picture 1)
2. Lay the handle parts within easy
reach. You’ll need one of the handle
clamps (#51) and one of the lower
handles (#6). Note that the lower
handles have a short leg on one end.
3. Fit the handle clamp along the
outside of the short leg. Line up the
holes on the clamp and the leg.
4. Choose one of the two 3-inch
bolts (#49). Slide it through the first
set of holes — near the elbow where
the lower handle curves. (Picture 2)
5. Now slide the other lower
handle onto the 3-inch bolt. Fit the
other handle clamp onto this other
handle’s short leg. Add a nut (#48)
and tighten finger tight. (Picture 3)
6. Locate the worm gear housing.
It starts just above – and extends
down through – the tiller’s red fender
guard. You’ll notice that there’s a
recessed channel on either side of the
housing’s top. (Picture 4.)
7. Take the lower handles that
you’ve just put together. Slide them
into the two recessed
channels.(Picture 5.)
Make sure you insert them from
the rear of the tiller (gasoline tank
faces away
from the operator)... so
that the bolt fits along the back of
the housing.
8. Slide the second 3-inch bolt
through the second set of holes in the
short legs. Add a nut and tighten
finger tight.

NOTE: THE LOCK NUTS ARE STAMPED. FINGER TIGHT IS
APPROXIMATELY 1/2 TO 1-1/2 TURNS.
