On some units, the D-handle may be pre-installed. In this
case you must loosen screws and adjust the handle to fit the
operator. Go to step 4 if the D-handle is pre-installed.
INSTALLING AND ADJUSTING THE D-HANDLE
1. Remove the items that were installed on the D-handle
for shipping.
2. Place the D-handle over the shaft housing and push it on
the boom (Fig. 1).
3, Install the bolt, washer and wing nut. Tighten them.
4. If the D-handle was pre-installed, loosen the wing nut on
it just enough so it is movable.
5. While holding the unit in the operating position, arrange
or rotate the D-handle to the location that provides you
the best grip (Fig. 2).
6. Tighten the wing nut until the D-handle is secure.
INSTALLING THE CUTTING SHIELD
Use the following instructions if the cutting attachment shield
on your unit is not installed or if you ever need to re-install it.
1. Place the cutting attachment shield onto the shaft
housing above the clamp assembly (Fig. 3).
2. Push the cutting attachment shield down to the top of
the cutting attachment assembly. Then rotate the shield
until its screw holes line up with the holes in the cutting
attachment. The shield guard should fit into the recessed
pocket (Fig. 3).
3. Install the screws with a Phillips screwdriver (Fig. 4).
WARNING: To prevent serious personal injury,
never operate the trimmer without the cutting
attachment shield in place.
