Anti-vibration elements
Four anti-vibration elements (arrows)
are installed between the powerhead
and the drive tube. Have the system
checked if there is a noticeable increase
in vibrations.
Both vibration gaps (arrows) are preset
to the same width at the factory. If the
size of the two vibration gaps varies
greatly and/or one of them closes up,
have your servicing dealer repair the
anti-vibration system.
Wear Guard on AV Housing
There is an easily replaced wear guard
on the side of the anti-vibration housing.
The guard may wear as a result of
rubbing against the side plate of the
harness during operation and should be
replaced if necessary.
