OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

BASIC OPERATION

Raising and lowering the header

The AG8000 uses a mechanical system to raise and lower the entire header at a single

operating point which is located on the back of the unit. Since this is a mechanical system,

electricity is not required for this operation. There are two ways to operate this

mechanism: (1) with the hand crank attachment (P/N: HARDWRE161) that is provided

with the unit or (2) with a power drill with clutch (not included). For the power drill option,

a bit for the drill is provided with the unit (3/8" socket adapter with a 5/8" socket). It is

highly recommended that the power drill has a clutch setting to help prevent over

extending the header into the ceiling (use the lowest clutch setting that is able to raise

the header to the ceiling).

Turn hand crank clockwise to raise the

header. Turn hand crank counter-

clockwise to lower the header.

Warning: Do not overextend the header into the ceiling! This may cause damage to

the ceiling and/or the unit. Stop raising the header when the foam seal on the

header touches the ceiling.

Warning: Do not allow the header to collide with any devices or fixtures installed in

the ceiling or walls.

Warning: Be sure the ladder is retracted from the ladder bracket before lowering the

header!

Locking the casters

To lock the casters, push down on the

pedal with work shoe.

Alternatively, a power drill can be used

to quickly and easily raise and lower the

header.

To unlock the casters, push the pedal

towards the wheel with work shoe.
