INSTALLING AND ADJUSTING THE HANDLE
MODEL NO. 316.74093*
Installing the Handle
1. Place a ball half on each side of the upper shaft housing (Fig. 3).
Align each tab with its corresponding slot on the opposite ball
half (Fig. 3). Hold the two halves together. Make sure the ball is
positioned beyond the end of the safety label (Fig. 3).
2. Carefully push the rear handle bracket onto the upper shaft
housing (Fig. 4). Make sure the rear handle bracket is between
the ball and the shaft grip (Fig. 4).
3. Push the rear handle bracket onto the back of the ball and hold
it in place (Fig. 5).
4. Carefully maneuver the front handle bracket over the coupler
and push it onto the front of the ball (Fig. 5). Hold the front and
rear handle brackets together.
5. Insert a nut into one of the hexagonal recesses in the back of
the rear handle bracket (Fig. 6). Make sure the round side of the
nut faces outward. Hold the nut in place with a finger. Insert a
bolt into the corresponding hole in the front handle bracket (Fig.
6). Tighten the bolt with a flat-head or T20 Torx® screwdriver.
Repeat this step until all four (4) bolts are securely installed.
6. Push the latch pin completely into the small hook on the handle
(Fig. 7). Lift the latch lever up and push it toward the large hook
(Fig. 7). Push the latch loop over the large hook (Fig. 7).
