Removing or installing the chip
receiver
CAUTION:
When installing or removing the
chip receiver, always wear gloves so that your
hands do not directly contact the shear blades.
The chip receiver gathers discarded leaves and makes
clean-up afterward much easier.
To remove the chip receiver, remove 4 screws (for
DUH604S) or 5 screws (for DUH754S), and then
remove the chip receiver from the tool. To install the
chip receiver, follow the removal procedure in reverse.
