NOTE: If the blade control handle got displaced either during shipping or during assembly of other two handles,
reassemble it now. If the blade control handle is firmly secured in place, you may proceed to the next assembly.
1. To reattach the blade control handle to the upper handle,
first identify the proper holes in the upper handle. This can
be done by placing the blade control handle flat against
the upper handle. The ends of the blade control handle will
approximate the hole positions.
2. Insert the curved end of the blade control handle into the
right hole. See Figure 5.
3. Squeeze the handle in, and insert the straight end of the
blade control handle into the left hole of the upper handle.
4. Squeeze the blade control handle against the upper
handle to check for proper assembly.
NOTE: The hole in the blade control handle must be on the left
side and the control handle must touch the upper handle when
squeezed.
