Removing a Tool Attachment

1. With the unit on a clean, ﬂat surface,

loosen the coupler screw knob. The

spring-loaded coupler protector should

lock. See Figure 6.

ends of both tubes, and loosen the cou-

pler screw knob.

3. Insert the upper tube assembly into the

coupler, with the tool decal facing up, un-

til the line of the decal is ﬂush with the

and forth until you are sure it snaps in

place by the coupler latch. See Figure 4.

4. When the two tube halves are locked to-

gether, press down on the spring-loaded
