HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY
DANGER: RISK OF CUT. To
avoid serious injury, the barrier portion
of the handlebar must be Installed as
shown on the upper tube of the pow-
erhead to provide a barrier between
operator and the spinning blade. At­

ty warning decal on the upper tube
(powerhead end of unit). Ensure han­
dlebar is positioned on handlebar
clamp between the arrows on the han­
dlebar decal.
NOTE: The tube clamp base has four
spacer tabs attached. These tabs are
provided to adapt this attachment for
use with powerheads that have a 1"
diameter upper tube (the tube clamp
will not tighten down securely on the
1" diameter upper tube without using
these spacer tabs). The tabs must be
broken off completely before use and
placed over the screw holes on the
clamp base. These tabs are not need­
ed for powerheads with a 7/8" upper
tube.
