Removing P-16 Tool Attachments…
General and Removing Spreader Arms

Relieve tool load prior to removing tool
attachment. Spreader arms should be at
least slightly open. Failure to relieve load
will prevent removal of attachment pins.

Use the coated steel cable between the
pins as an aid when pulling up pins. Pins
should remove easily. If not, verify tool load
is relieved.
DO NOT FORCE. If load is
relieved properly, attachment pins will
come out easily

Loosen the clutch and rotate the
powerhead as necessary for better
accessibility to the pins.
Be sure to re-
tighten the clutch prior to operation.
Removing Cutters
All Power Hawk cutter blades are held
together with a special-steel bolt and nut
that is tightened to approximately 150 ft.-
lbs. of torque. As the cutter is operated to
open or close, there exists a natural load
on the pins as the blades “push through”
the friction induced by the high torque of
the bolt.
To relieve this load…
1. Operate the tool in one direction by
depressing the trigger switch.
2. Jog the switch (split-second “on” then
“off”) in the opposite direction. This will
relieve the load on the pins.
3. Push up on bottom of pins and then
pull up using the coated steel cable. DO
NOT FORCE. If load is relieved properly,
attachment pins will come out easily
HINT: After removing Pins, drape
them over each handle bracket to
prevent losing them.
