Mixing Fuel - Shindaiwa C282 Owner's/Operator's Manual

Assembly (continued)
Installing Brushcutter Blade
WARNING!
Do not attach any blade to
a unit without proper installation of
all required parts. Failure to use the
proper parts can cause the blade to
fly off and seriously injure the oper-
ator and/or bystanders.
1. Turn the unit upside down so the
gear case output shaft is facing UP
and remove the shaft bolt, bolt guard
and holder B from the gear case
shaft.
2. Align the hole in blade holder A with
the matching hole in the gear case
flange and then temporarily lock
the output shaft by inserting a hex
wrench through both holes.
3. Fit the blade over the flange on holder
A.
4. Install blade holder B on the output
shaft.
CAUTION!
Install the blade so its printed sur-
face is visible to the operator when
the brushcutter is in the normal
operating position.
IMPORTANT!
Discard blades that are bent, warped,
cracked, broken or damaged in any way.
Use a sharp blade. A dull blade is more
likely to snag and thrust.
