ALWAYS unfold the handle and lock in the open position before starting the
engine. Failure to do this may result in equipment damage or personal
injury.
To completely unfold the handle:
1.
Grab the lock arm at the hook and push backward, toward the engine, until the
latch releases the grab bar (see Figure 8).
2.
Once the latch is free, lower the hook beneath the grab bar and bring it forward
until the lock arm is completely free of the grab bar (see Figure 8).
3.
Unfold the handle completely. Fold the lock arm down to be flush with the upper
handle (see Figure 9).
4.
Insert the lock screw with hand knob (near the joint) into the nut on the lower
handle. Turn the hand knob clockwise until it is fully tightened (see Figure 10). Do
not overtighten the hand knob using a wrench or other tool, as this will make
unlocking the handle difficult and risks stripping the threads on the lock screw.
