Cutting attachment in
central / side position
NOTE: The Power Cut is delivered with the cutting attachment
mounted in the middle position (1). For cutting up against ob-
stacles, such as curbs or walls, the cutting attachment can be
mounted to one side (2). Use this position only when actually
necessary, and afterwards return the cutting attachment to the
middle position
In this position the Power Cut has better balance, is easier to
guide, and is not as fatiguing for the operator.
Use the combination tool (8) to lever out the stop pin (9) as
shown in the illustration, until the protective hood (11) can be
turned.
NOTE: The turn stop (7) is deactivated when the stop pin (8) is
removed. This permits the hood (11) to be turned farther than
the turn stop (7).
Unscrew the grip (10) and turn the protective hood (11) as
shown in the illustration.
Disengage the V-belt (12) and remove the cutting attach-
ment.
NOTE: The illustration shows the V-belt for models DPC6340
- DPC7341.
