STEP 1
Assemble A-Frame Base & Stretch Assist Handles
• Follow these instructions if you have an EP‑560 model.
• On a level surface, position the A‑Frame so that it is standing upright
and the Stability Feet are on the ground.
• Gently push down on the Spreader Arms to ensure they are fully open
and in the “locked” position (Figure 1).
• Look for temporary circular assembly assistance labels on the
A‑Frame.
RIGHT, LEFT, FRONT,
and
REAR
indicate your position while
using the equipment, not facing it. These labels can be removed easily
upon completion of assembly.
• Locate the Handle Assembly Hardware Kit (HK1008).
• Determine the left or right handles, marked with an embossed L / R
on the inside of the black plastic part of each handle.
• Align the black plastic part of the corresponding handle (left / right)
over the outside edge of the Hinge Plate on the A‑Frame (Figure 2).
• Insert and loosely hand‑tighten three of the Allen Head Screws
through the Hinge Plate into the handle (Figure 3).
• Repeat with other handle. Tighten all fasteners with the Allen Wrench
provided, being careful not to over‑tighten.
• Proceed to Page 8 for Step 2.
