ASSEMBLY
Adjusting the harness and clearing
saw
Safety release
At the front is an easily accessible, quick release. Use this if
the engine catches fire or in any other emergency situation
that requires you to free yourself from the machine and
harness.
Spreading the load on your shoulders
A well-adjusted harness and machine makes work much
easier. Adjust the harness for the best working position.
Tension the side straps so that the weight is evenly distributed
across both shoulders.
Correct height
1 Forestry clearing
The machine should be supported in a harness when
forestry clearing so that the cutting equipment is angled
slightly forwards in relation to the ground. Adjust the
height using the strap on the harness for the support
hook.
2 Grass clearing
The machine should be supported in a harness when
grass clearing so that the cutting equipment is parallel to
the ground.
Correct balance
1 Forestry clearing
The machine is balanced by moving the support ring on
the machine forwards or backwards. On some models the
support ring is fixed, however, this will then have a number
of holes for the support hook. The machine is correctly
balanced when it freely hangs horizontally from the
support hook. In this way the risk of hitting stones is
reduced if you need to release the handlebar.
2 Grass clearing
Let the blade balance at a comfortable cutting height, i.e.
close to the ground.
!
WARNING! When using a clearing saw it
must always be hooked securely to the
harness. Otherwise you will be unable to
control the clearing saw safely and this can
result in injury to yourself or others. Never
use a harness with a defective quick release.
