Stihl FS 510 C Instruction Manual page 23

Four plugs (9) are supplied with the
shredder deflector.
Fitting the grass shield
A grass shield is mounted to the gearbox
when using mowing heads and grass
cutting blades. It greatly reduces the
amount of grass, plant residue, etc. that
wraps itself around the gearbox and
cutting attachment.
Machines which have a mowing head or
grass cutting blade as original
equipment are supplied with a grass
shield. A "grass shield kit" is available as
a special accessory for retrofitting to
machines.
Install the grass shield before
N
mounting the deflector – if
necessary, remove the deflector
that is already fitted on the gearbox.
