HOW TO  ASSEMBLE

Assembly Packet

The assembly packet is with the owner’s
guide. The packet contains two 2-part
bolts and two cord hooks. An extra drive
belt is also included with some models.

Step 1
Assemble the Handle

Slip the upper handle and the lower
handle together so the handle bolt holes
align and the slots in the handle are
positioned as shown in Detail A. Insert a
2-part bolt (A) in the center of the handle
and tighten.

Hold the assembled handle so it curves
away from the cleaner. Then push the
handle into the handle socket (D) at the
rear of the cleaner. Align the holes, insert
the other 2-part bolt (A), and tighten.
