IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE:
Engaging the throttle with the quick-release clamp still loose
will cause the upper handle shaft to be expelled under
pressure from the lower handle shaft, potentially causing
injury to the operator. Always ensure the quick-release clamp
is tightened securely prior to pulling the throttle.

Operation Manual
Handle Shaft Adjustment
The handle shafts of pneumatic PowerHandlers are telescoping, allowing both the height and the
orientation of the handle to be adjusted to suit each individual operator.
1. Release the Quick-Release Clamp at the sliding connection point of the handle shaft.
2. Extend or retract the upper handle shaft according to what is a comfortable working
height for each operator, making allowance for the fact that the unit needs to be tilted
back onto its rear wheels for maneuvering into position.
3. Rotate the handle grip to be pointing to the left, center or right, which will provide
different orientations of the handle grip as the handle shaft
is rotated into each of its four operating positions.
4. If loads are being rolled forwards and only from the
center of the load, the most typical handle orientation
is pointing backwards (position 1 in Figure 2). If the
operator operates the handle with the handle grip
almost always to one side, orient the handle grip to that
side. Figure 2 shows the recommended orientation for
operators using the handle swiveled right.
5. If the unit will be operated with the handle shaft rotated
to both the left and the right sides, we recommend
“motorcycle position” (position 2 in Figure 2).
Each operator may have a different preferred handle grip
orientation. This is easily and quickly adjustable for each
operator at the commencement of the device’s operation.
