Connecting an Attachment
Note: This FLEX™ Power Base is designed to couple with a series
of attachments that will be powered by this unit. The coupling of
the various attachments are engineered with precise tolerances.
It is imperative that the operator keeps the coupling mechanisms
free from dirt and debris. Refer to the individual attachment
manuals for detailed instructions for connecting the various
attachments.
If you experience difficulty coupling these devices, possible
reasons could be dirt or debris affecting mounting pins and
latches. Clean and inspect the mounting points regularly.
The FLEX™ Power Base incorporates a special locking system,
called the Latch'n Lock™. To connect the FLEX™ Power Base to an
attachment, follow these simple steps:
1. Be sure to release the Attachment Control Lever before
attempting to connect or disconnect the FLEX™ Power
Base from any of the various attachments.
WARNING!
Always be sure to release the
Attachment Control Lever before attempting to
couple or uncouple the power base from an
attachment. Failure to do so can result in damage to
your equipment, as well as possible injury resulting from
accidentally activating an attachment.
2. Put the Latch'n Lock™ kickstand into the lock (Up) position,
see Figure 5-6.
Figure 5-6
3. Tip the FLEX™ Power Base forward and engage the top
locking handle on the various attachment.
4. Rock the FLEX™ Power Base backwards to lock in the
bottom mounts. The operator should feel it engage and
hear an audible "click," indicating that the attachment has
been properly connected.
Note: Try pivoting the FLEX™ Power Base forward to make
sure a connection has been established.
