NOTE: Care should be given as not to damage wire harness
while assembling Snowthrower.
NOTE: You may find it difficult to slide the upper handle
assembly into the lower handle during initial assembly. This
is due to the close tolerance fit between the upper and lower
tubes, required to ensure a rigid assembly. If this problem
arises proceed as follows:
S
Place a small amount of grease or oil on the inside of lower
tubes. This will ensure a smooth and even fit when sliding
upper tubes into lower tubes.
S
Fold wire harness, and insert excess wire into lower right
handle tube. Put as much of the wire harness as possible into
lower tube.
S
While holding lower grip firmly, carefully slide the right and left
upper handle tubes into lower handle tubes until holes are
aligned evenly on both sides. DO NOT DAMAGE WIRE
HARNESS. Figure 3.
S
Wipe off any excess grease or oil.
