ATTACHING THE AUXILIARY HANDLE
• With the hex wrench supplied, separate
the handle pieces as shown in figure D.
Note: Hex head wrench stores on
trimmer handle above battery.
• Attach the handle to the metal shaft of
the trimmer with the curved edge facing
forward. Push down on the handle so
that it engages with the slot in the shaft.
• Attach the two handle pieces using four
hex head screws as shown in figures E
and F.
• Fully tighten screws with hex wrench.
AUXILIARY HANDLE ADJUSTMENT
• For maximum comfort and control, adjust the auxiliary handle to
suit your height. Shorter users adjust handle to a lower position
(away from you) and taller users, adjust handle to an upper
position (towards you). The handle should be adjusted so that your
front arm is straight when the trimmer is in the working position.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
The overall height of the trimmer can be adjusted by loosening the
lock collar and rotating it opposite to the arrow shown in figure G.
The tubes can then be extended shorter or longer. When the desired
height is achieved tighten the collar by rotating in the direction shown
in figure G.
