Assembling the cutting equipment

WARNING!
!
When fitting the cutting attachment it is
extremely important that the raised section
on the drive disc/support flange engages
correctly in the centre hole of the cutting
attachment. If the cutting attachment is
fitted incorrectly it can result in serious
and/or fatal personal injury.
WARNING! Never use a cutting attachment
!
without an approved guard. See the chapter
on Technical data. If an incorrect or faulty
guard is fitted this can cause serious
personal injury.
IMPORTANT! If a saw blade or grass blade are to be used
the machine must be equipped with the correct handlebar,
blade guard and harness.

• Screw the support cup (E) onto the output shaft threads
(CAUTION! Left-hand thread). Tighten to a torque of 35-
50 Nm (3.5-5.0 kpm). Use the socket spanner in the tool
kit. Note that the locking pin (C) must remain inside the
gear housing to lock the drive disk. Hold the shaft of the
socket spanner as close to the blade guard/combination
guard as possible.
WARNING! Tighten the lock screw (N) in the
!
center hole of the support cup. Tighten to a
torque of 35-50 Nm (3.5-5.0 kpm), CAUTION!
Left-hand thread. If the lock screw is not
fitted in the support cup, there is a risk that
the support cup will come unscrewed. This
means that the blade will also come loose,
which could result in serious or fatal injury
to the operator or others.
