Check all fasteners for proper security. Consult a
fastener torque chart for the proper torque value if any

INSTALLATION OF THE ADJUSTABLE SECTION
OF THE OPERATOR HANDLE.
The installation of the adjustable section of the
operator will require a level working surface of
sufficient size and appropriate height.
1) The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER incorporates
an operator handle design that folds for transport and
storage. The handle is secured to the main frame at
two locations; a pivoting (fixed) location secured by
Allen head type capscrews and a retaining (locking)
location secured by removeable, ball-detent type pins.
The pins are secured to the main frame by lanyards.
2) To place the operator handle in the work position,
move the handle upright so that the ball-detent pins
can be inserted through the operator handle and main
frame. Determine the ball-detent pins are properly
inserted through the operator handle and main frame
to fully expose the ball detent. FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 1
THE BALL DETENT MUST BE FULLY EXPOSED
AGAINST THE MAIN FRAME TO PROVIDE THE
PROPER PIN RETAINING FORCE. AN IMPROPER
PIN RETAINING CONFIGURATION CAN RESULT IN
UNEXPECTED OPERATOR HANDLE MOVEMENT.
THIS OCCURRENCE CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY
DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
3) Remove the threaded knobs from the fixed section
of the operator handle. Install the adjustable section
into the fixed section with the handle grips facing
