Operating Instructions 1.
After attachment has been selected, use a chisel to clean out the holes in the manhole (see Figure 14).
2.
Pound around the edges of the manhole with a small mallet to loosen the manhole cover or grate.
3.
Place the selected attachment on the remover as directed in the Attachment Selection.
4.
For curbside grate removal, the remover’s back leg (under the handle) should be approximately 4" (102 mm) off of the ground to prevent the grate cover from hitting the curb (see Figure 15).
Figure 14
6.
Figure 15
CAUTION! Be aware of obstacles and people in the area when operating remover. 5.
Push down on the handle of the remover and rotate in the direction that the manhole cover is to be placed (see Figure 16). If the manhole cover begins to tip, replace it and adjust the tripod slightly closer or further from the manhole for better placement.

Operating Instructions 1.
After attachment has been selected, use a chisel to clean out the holes in the manhole (see Figure 14).
2.
Pound around the edges of the manhole with a small mallet to loosen the manhole cover or grate.
3.
Place the selected attachment on the remover as directed in the Attachment Selection.
4.
For curbside grate removal, the remover’s back leg (under the handle) should be approximately 4" (102 mm) off of the ground to prevent the grate cover from hitting the curb (see Figure 15).
Figure 14
6.
Figure 15
CAUTION! Be aware of obstacles and people in the area when operating remover. 5.
Push down on the handle of the remover and rotate in the direction that the manhole cover is to be placed (see Figure 16). If the manhole cover begins to tip, replace it and adjust the tripod slightly closer or further from the manhole for better placement.

If the remover is too high or low for sufficient leverage, adjust the height of the remover by turning the legs clockwise for more height or counterclockwise for less (see Figure 17).
