Assembly
It is necessary to fit the guard (7) to the lower shaft (5) and
the secondary handle (4) to the upper shaft (23).
1. Ensure the switch is in the
off position and disconnect
the cable plug from the
mains supply.
2. Position the safety guard
mount (10) at the bottom of
the lower shaft. Ensure the
middle hole of the mount
lines up with the guard fixing
point (22).
3. Place the guard split washer
(19), followed by the guard
washer (20) onto the guard
locking screw (19), insert into
the centre hole of the safety
guard mount and tighten into
the guard fixing point.
4. Fix the guard in place with the
four fixing screws (21).
5. Fit the secondary handle (4) to the upper shaft (23) by
fitting the handle over the shaft and placing the locking
clamp nut (included) through the holes in the guard
and tightening in the most comfortable position to the
secondary handle locking knob (16).
To attach the two sections of the shaft
1. Align the two sections of the shaft and, keeping the
head straight, fully insert the lower section until the shaft
locking button (12) engages in the locating hole in the
upper shaft. The head will be in the normal operating
position.
Note. If the two shafts do not fully fit together, rotate the
head of the line trimmer to assist in aligning the drive shafts.
2. Tighten the upper shaft section to the lower shaft by
turning the shaft locking knob (11) clockwise and firmly
gripping the shaft locking nut (17).
Fitting the carry strap
1. Hook the strap (15) to the carry strap hook (14) on the
front of the handle.
2. Adjust the length of the strap as required.
Before starting
Before use, check that the tool is in good working order and
that the length of the trimmer line is correct, as follows:
1. Ensure the switch is in the off position and disconnect the
cable plug from the mains supply.
2. Examine the general condition of the tool. Inspect the
guard, switch, cordset and extension cord. Check for
loose screws, misalignment, binding of moving parts,
improper mounting, broken parts and any other condition
that may affect its safe operation.
If abnormal noise or vibration occurs during operation,
turn the line trimmer off immediately and have the
problem corrected.
