INSTALLING STRING TRIMMER ATTACHMENT TO POWER HEAD

coupler device.
Remove the battery pack.
●
Loosen the wingnut on the coupler of the power head shaft.

Pull the retaining pin located on the power head shaft and rotate

completely in the positioning hole, the
shafts are not locked into place. Slightly
rotate from side to side until the pin is
locked into place.
Tighten the wingnut securely.

WARNING: Be certain the wingnut is fully tightened before operating
equipment; check it periodically for tightness during use to avoid
serious personal injury.
