Contact Jiffy http://www.jiffyonice.com/contact.htm I know they used to make an upgrade kit for those older style augers.

I had one of those old style jiffy's and that old handle was determined unsafe. A up grade to the dual handle like the new ones was offered for free. Don't know if they are still available or not. I did that change over many years ago. I broke my hand with that old style handle. Lost my grip and that straight handle swung around and hit the back of my hand.
