Fitting the harness clamp
S Place the upper harness clamp over the
shaft and position the lower harness
clamp under the shaft. Align the upper
and lower clamp screw holes. Clamp
must be fitted above the arrow on the
shaft (see illustration).
S Insert two screws into the screw holes.
S Secure harness clamp by tightening
screws with a hex wrench.

Adjusting the harness

S Insert your right arm and head through
the harness and allow it to rest on your
left shoulder. Make sure the harness
hook is to the right side of your waist.
NOTE:
A one-half twist is built in the har-
ness to allow the harness to rest flat on the
shoulder.
S Adjust the harness, allowing the hook to
be about 6 inches (15 cm) below the
waist.
S Fasten the harness to the harness clamp
on the shaft and lift the unit to the operat-
ing position.
S Put on the harness. Now make a final
adjustment so that the unit is in a com-
fortable working position when it hangs
from the harness.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to relocate
the harness clamp on the shaft for proper
balancing of unit.

ASSEMBLY
Correct height
Adjust the harness so that the cutting at-
tachment is parallel to the ground.
Correct balance
Let the cutting attachment rest lightly on
the ground. If you use a grass blade, it
should balance about 4 inches (10 cm)
above the ground to prevent contact with
stones and the like. Adjust the position of
the harness clamp to balance the unit cor-
rectly.
