Putting a second hand on a weapon should be an interact action. I'm not sure if it's explicitly stated in the rules, but I'm pretty sure the devs have confirmed it.</p>Releasing a single hand from a weapon is covered under the "release" free action.

If someone is wielding a weapon with the 2-handed property (it has a 1h requirement, but does a larger damage die when wielded with 2 hands, for example a bastard sword or a dwarven waraxe), do they need to use an interact action to change their grip from two handed to one handed, or from one handed to two handed? The release action is free, so one might think that changing from two handed to one handed would just require a release action.</p>I can't find this in the rules.
