the post end away from the blade and set it on top of the blade as
shown.
3. Turn the blade cover slowly until the post end clears the debris
shield.
4. Reposition the post end over the blade.
5. With the blade cover fully seated on the blade, latch the tab over
the post.

DEBRIS SHIELDS

Always use the correct debris shield when operating the trimmer. In
addition to safety concerns, it can cause an overload to the clutch due
to excessive line length. Clutch failure due to running the trimmer
without a shield installed is not covered under warranty.
A variety of blades are available from your Honda trimmer servicing
dealer. Always use the debris shield designed for use with a blade
when attaching a blade to your trimmer. The blade type debris shield
does not have a cutoff knife.
Inspect the shield for excessive wear, damage, or looseness before
each use. If the shield is damaged, it must be replaced.
