Assembly
NOTE: Remove all loose parts and any packing material before
assembling.
Setting Up The Handle
1. Cut and remove the cable tie (if present) securing upper
handle to lower handle.
NOTE: Be aware of the three loosely fitted cable ties attached to
the lower handle that will be utilized later to secure the cables.
NOTE: Do not lift the snow thrower by the chute handle.
2. Loosen and remove the wing knob, saddle washer, handle
tab and carriage bolt on each side of the lower handle. See
Figure 3-1.
3. Slide the loosely fitted cable tie from the right side of the
lower handle up to the cross member of the lower handle.
Leave the second cable tie in place on the right side of the
lower handle with the mounting post pushed into the hole
on the handle. See Fig. 3-3 for reference.
IMPORTANT: It will be necessary to lift the upper handle while
sliding up this cable tie to prevent damage to the cable.
4. Lift the upper handle up and position it over the lower
handle, aligning the holes where the wing knobs were
removed (1). See Fig. 3-2.
CAUTION: Be careful not to bend or kink the cables.
5. Insert a carriage screw from the outside through a handle
tab, the upper and lower handles, a saddle washer and into
the wing knob (2). Repeat on the other side.
6. Tighten the wing knobs on each side of the handle. Refer to
Fig. 3-2.
NOTE: The auger cable routes down the left lower handle
and the drive cable is routed across the top of the lower
handle and down the right side of the lower handle. See
Fig. 3-3.
7. Tighten the cable ties on the lower handle in the positions
shown in Fig. 3-3. Trim off excess material of cable ties.
