Handle itself is ok, although it needs a locator screw in the middle to stop the bar sliding left and right.
Sadly no installation instructions, and no pictures on the website confirming how it should be attached. I had to go onto amazon and I found one for sale with pictures of where it should be attached. Very fiddly to install, trying to hold the handle in place, and the rubber finger guards and the bolts and a screw driver all at the same time was challenging. Assistance is required! You definitely need one to move the machine around, super easy to move with the handle on. I guess you would just use the hopper to move it otherwise. Unsure why the handle isn’t just included in the kit.
It is easy to fit and does the job, but the cross bar needs securing to stop it sliding from side to side and rattling when the shredder is running. A blob of two part epoxy does the trick.
Haven’t attached it to the chipper yet but a bolt through the handle to hold it fixed would be a good idea
It should be part of the overall package or an option when purchasing the chipper. The chipper is not portable really without it.
Fitting was pretty obvious although no instructions were included. I was surprised that the cross piece of the handle is not fixed in the “ring”. A small bolt to fix it might be advisable.
