Tm Wheel Support Accessory - terrasaw TS-400 Operator Owner's Manual

Using the Terrasaw
Warning: Electric shock can be fatal. Regardless of whether you are using
the Terrasaw freehand or with the WSA system, remember to check the
location of all underground services, especially electric cables, before you
dig (see page 2).
Having assembled your WSA (refer instructions supplied with unit) lay the control
handle on the ground.
Position the tongue (located) under the Terrasaw into the axle mount of WSA. Lock
in place by sliding latching handle across into catch on Terrasaw.
Lift control handle and engage in notched depth adjuster.
Before starting powerhead:
Position throttle control assembly onto throttle handle of powerhead so that WSA
throttle latch engages the power head throttle trigger. Secure in place by wrapping
velcro strap around powerhead handle.
With engine still switched off, check for smooth throttle operation by operating
remote throttle lever and adjust throttle cable slack as required using the in-line
adjuster to ensure engine will safely return to idle once started.
Place towing strap around lower back and adjust length for comfortable operation.
You are now ready for action! (Refer to powerhead operator's manual along with
page 2 of the Terrasaw Operator's Manual for correct starting procedure).
Tips for Use
Start digging your trench and select a notch on the depth adjuster which gives
both the desired trench depth and a comfortable operating position for the control
handle. Before changing to a different notch, throttle off and allow your digging
chain to come to rest so that you retain full control of the Terrasaw at all times.
When trenching with this attachment fitted, allow the trencher to dig at a rate at
which the soil type/conditions allow. If excessive backwards pressure is used for
the particular soil type/condition, the Terrasaw will try to 'surface' and the wheels will
come off the ground. This situation places unnecessary strain on all componentry
including the operator.
Happy Trenching!
