ASSEMBLY
Adjusting the harness and clearing
saw
Assembling and dismantling the
two-part shaft
Quick release
On the front is an easily
accessible, quick release
catch:
Pull out the red strap.
The hip strap and one
shoulder strap will be
automatically released at
the same time and the
harness and the engine
unit will slide to the
ground.
Use this if the engine should
catch fire or in any other
emergency situation when
you quickly need to take off
the harness and machine.
Equal load on
shoulders
A well matched saw and
harness make work much
easier. Adjust the harness to
give the best working stance.
Adjust the side straps so that
the weight is equally divided
across the shoulders.
Off-loading strap
The off-loading strap is
intended to off-load the
weight from the shaft.
Adjust the length of the
strap so that the cutting
equipment balances just
above the ground.
!
WARNING!
When working with the clearing saw the
harness should always be worn. If this is
not done, you cannot control the clearing
saw safely and this can result in injury to
yourself or someone else. Never use a
harness with a defective quick release
catch.
Assembling:
Make sure the handle is
loose.
Guide the cut-out on the
lower section of the shaft
into the couplings locking
plate on the upper section
of the shaft. The sections
are then locked together.
Tighten the handle.
Dismantling
Undo the handle (at least
three turns).
Press the handle towards
the coupling.
Carefully twist the lower
section out of the lock.
Hold both parts of the
shaft and pull out the
lower section from the
coupling.
