centering lever and simultaneously pull the drive
rod mechanism out of the connecting piece.
5.3 Fitting / Replacing the cutting blade
The procedure for fi tting the cutting blade is
shown in Figures 12-18. To dismantle, proceed in
reverse order.
•
Fit the carrier plate 30) onto the spline shaft
(Fig. 13)
•
Secure the cutting blade (1) on the carrier
plate (Fig. 14)
•
Place the pressure plate (31) over the thread
of the spline shaft (Fig. 15)
•
Plug on the cover of the pressure plate (32)
(Fig. 16)
•
Mount the nut (24) hand-tight (Fig. 17).
•
While pressing the locking lever (A), turn on
the nut until the carrier plate is held in posi-
tion. Tighten the nut with a suitable tool (Fig.
18). Important: Left-hand thread!
•
Check whether the blade (1) can rotate freely
after you let go of the locking lever. If this is
not the case, have the mechanism checked
by an expert.
5.4 Fitting the cutting line guard hood to the
blade guard hood
Important: The cutting line guard hood must be
fi tted in addition if you want to work with the cut-
ting line.
The procedure for fi tting the guard hood for the
cutting line is shown in Figures 19-20. A blade
(Fig. 19/ Item F) on the underside of the guard
hood automatically cuts the cutting line to the
optimum length. It is covered by a guard (Fig.
19/Item G). Remove the guard before you start
working and replace it when you have fi nished
working.
5.5 Fitting the handle
Fit the handle as shown in Fig. 8-9.
5.6 Fitting / replacing the line spool
Fit the carrier plate (30) onto the spline shaft (Fig.
13)
While pressing the locking lever (A), turn on the
line spool until the carrier plate is held in position.
Tighten the line spool by hand (Fig. 21). Impor-
tant: Left-hand thread!
Check whether the line spool (3) can rotate freely
after you let go of the locking lever. If this is not
the case, have the mechanism checked by an
expert.
