ATTACHMENT
See Figure 4.
The pruner attachment connects to the power head, or for
extra reach to an extension shaft, by means of a coupler
device.
To install the attachment:
Loosen the knob on the coupler of the power head shaft
and remove the end cap from the attachment.
Push in the button located on the shaft of the pruner at-
tachment. Align the button with the guide recess on the
extension shaft coupler and slide the two shafts together.
Rotate extension shaft until button locks into the position-
ing hole.

The attachment should only be operated with the
blade in a vertical position. If the button does not release
completely in the positioning hole, the shaft is not locked
into place. Slightly rotate from side to side until the button
is locked into place.
Tighten the knob securely.
Repeat previous steps to attach extension shaft to power
head.
