ASSEMBLY
HANDLES
Assemble the handles as shown in the figure to
the right. Attach the handle with the screw eyes
(A) to the right side of the mounting bracket with
the carriage bolts (F) and hex nuts (G). Next,
insert the cross rod (C) into the hole at the top of
the right handle and slide the left handle (B) onto
the other side of the cross rod. Bend the left
handle into position on the mounting bracket and
attach with the remaining carriage bolts and nuts.
See right.
Attach the handle mount (J) to the assembled
Tilther body (K) with the two hex bolts (H) and
washers (I).
SECURING THE DRILL
Remove the battery
from the drill so the tines will not engage while
you are securing it. Next, tighten the drill chuck to the drive shaft.
Make certain that the jaws of the chuck land on flat parts of the drive
shaft. The battery pack of the drill rests on the rubber pad when in
use. See right.
Note: When operating the Tilther, your drill should be set to the lowest
gear and the highest torque setting, which is often indicated with a drill
symbol.
ATTACHING THE L-BRACKET
Attach the L-bracket (E) to one of the holes in the top of the Tilther
frame with the mounting hardware provided. Use the hole that best
secures your drill model. The L-bracket is a newer feature on the
Tilther that keeps the drill from backing off the drive shaft while in use.
L-BRACKET FOR OLDER TILTHERS
You can add the L-bracket to an older Tilther model
by drilling holes in the aluminum frame. See left.
This information, along with a drilling template is
included when you purchase the Tilther L-Bracket
