Fitting The Harness And Harness Clamp 10 Fitting Blades And Trimmer Heads; Fitting A Blade Guard, Grass Blade And Grass Cutter - Husqvarna 128R Operator's Manual

Correct height
Adjust the harness so that the cutting at-
tachment is parallel to the ground.
Correct balance
Let the cutting attachment rest lightly on
the ground. If you use a grass blade, it
should balance about 10 cm above the
ground to prevent contact with stones and
the like. Adjust the position of the harness
clamp to balance the unit correctly.

WARNING:
When fitting blades,
it is extremely important that the
raised section on the retaining wash-
er engages correctly in the centre
hole of the blade. If the blade is fitted
incorrectly, it can result in serious
and/or fatal personal injury.
WARNING:
Never use a cutting
attachment without an approved
guard. See the section on Technic-
al data. If an incorrect or faulty
guard is fitted this can cause seri-
ous personal injury.
