GENERAL OPERATION
HANDLE ADJUSTMENT
AFTER THE PROPER WHEEL ADJUSTMENT IS ACHIEVED, ADJUST HANDLE BY EITHER A OR B:
A. Removing handle adjustment pins, adjust handle to proper
angle and reinsert handle adjustment pins.
B. Lay machine on side, remove handle adjustment pins, adjust
handle to proper angle and reinsert handle adjustment pins.
No matter what the wheel angle is set at, the handle should be adjusted
to the "belt-line" of the operator or to what the operator is comfortable
with (See Figure A).
-
Low setting works best on soft sub floors, plywood, luan,
particleboard and wafer board.
-
Higher setting works best on direct glued down carpet, vinyl
or tile on concrete.
NOTE:
Adjustment by trail at the beginning of a job will give optimum performance.
