NOTE
The guard bracket may come already mounted to the gear case
on some models.
Install the cutting attachment guard on drive shaft tube against
angle transmission. Tighten the guard bracket fi rmly so that the
cutting attachment guard does not swing or move down during
operation.
Install the cutting attachment guard to the guard bracket, which also
secures the guard to the gear case using the two guard mounting
screws.
WARNING
If an incorrect or faulty guard is fi tted, this may cause serious
personal injury.
CAUTION
The cutting attachment guard is equipped with sharp line
limiters. Be careful with handling it.
When using a trimmer head with two piece type cutting attachment
guard, attach the guard extension to the cutting attachment guard.

NOTE
○ When attaching the guard extension to the cutting attachment
guard, the sharp line limiter must be removed from the cutting
attachment guard, (if so installed).
○ To remove the guard extension, refer to the drawings. Wear
gloves as the extension has a sharp line limiter, then push the
four square tabs on the guard one by one in order. (Fig. 12)
