SHOULDER STRAP ASSEMBLY
WARNING:
and handle adjustments are required before
use. The shoulder strap clamp must be installed
as shown above the handlebar on the upper
shaft (powerhead end of unit).
NOTE:
The lower shoulder strap clamp has
two spacer tabs attached. These tabs are pro-
vided to adapt this attachment for use with pow-
erheads that have a 2,5 cm diameter upper shaft
(the shoulder strap clamp will not tighten down
securely on the 2,5 cm diameter upper shaft
without using these spacer tabs). The tabs must
be broken off completely before use and placed
over the screw holes on the lower shoulder strap
clamp. These tabs are not needed for power-
heads with a 2,2 cm upper shaft.
