• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the top of the
red handle so "NOTICE"reads right side up as shown. Secure
with an overhand knot at least 1" (2.5 cm) from the end of the

• Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet (1.83 m) above the
floor. Ensurethat the rope and handle clear the tops of all
vehicles to avoid entanglement. Secure with an overhand knot.
NOTE:If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut end with
a match or lighter to prevent unraveling.

outlet you have, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet.
