How to use

To install the side handle, locate the threaded mounting point on the gear housing of your power tool. Align the handle with the mounting hole and rotate it clockwise until it is firmly secured. You can adjust the angle of the handle by loosening it slightly, rotating it to your desired position, and then tightening it back down securely. Ensure the handle is fully tightened before starting the tool to prevent it from slipping during operation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the compatibility of your specific power tool model with this handle
• Ensure the mounting point on your tool is clean and free of debris
• Check if your tool requires a specific thread size for side handle attachments

Usage recommendations

Always ensure the side handle is tightened securely before every use. If you experience excessive vibration or if the handle feels loose, stop the tool immediately and re-tighten the attachment to maintain optimal control and safety.
