INSTALLING THE CUTTING HEAD SHIELD
WARNING:
To prevent serious personal injury, never
operate the unit without the cutting head shield in place.
Use the following instructions if the cutting head shield is not
installed. Use only the instructions that apply to the type of shaft
and shield equipped with this unit.
1. Place the cutting head shield onto the mount bracket. Align the
holes in the cutting head shield with the holes in the mount
bracket. (Fig. 1)
2. Screw the 2 screws through the mount bracket and into the
cutting head shield until finger tight.
3. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, tighten the screws until the
cutting head shield is firmly in place. Tighten the screws equally.
The gap between the mount bracket and the cutting head shield
should be the same on each side.
ADJUSTING THE HANDLE
If the handle requires adjustment:
1. Flip the handle lever up to loosen the handle (Fig. 2).
2. While holding the unit in the operating position (Fig. 11), move
the handle to the location that provides the best grip. Place it a
minimum of 6 inches (15.24 cm) from the end of the shaft grip
(Fig. 2).
3. Tilt the handle as desired (Fig. 2).
4. Flip the handle lever down to secure the handle.
