WARNING: The shield must be properly installed. The
shield provides partial protection to the operator and others
from the risk of thrown objects, and is equipped with a line
limiter blade which cuts excess line to the proper length.
The line limiter blade (on underside of shield) is sharp and
can cut you.
You can configure your unit using a cutting head for grass
and light weeds, or a weed blade for cutting grass, weeds,
and brush up to 1 cm in diameter. To assemble your unit,
go to the section for the desired configuration and follow
the instructions.
NOTE: Remove the blade before attaching the trimmer
head. To remove blade, align hole in the dust cup with
the hole in the side of the gearbox by rotating the blade.
Insert a small screwdriver into aligned holes. This will
keep the shaft from turning while loosening the blade nut.
NOTE: If your unit has a plastic cover over the threads on
the threaded shaft, remove the covering to expose the
threads. Before installing the trimmer head, make sure the
dust cup and retaining washer are positioned on the
gearbox.
NOTE: Make sure all parts are properly installed as
shown in the illustration before installing the trimmer head.
NOTE: Remove the trimmer head before installing
the weed blade. To remove the trimmer head, align hole
in the dust cup with the hole in the side of the gearbox by
rotating the dust cup. Insert a small screwdriver into
aligned holes. This will keep the shaft from turning while
loosening the trimmer head. Remove the trimmer head by
turning clockwise. Remove the screwdriver.
See INSTALLATION OF THE CUTTING HEAD for
illustrations. Be sure to store all parts and instructions for
future use.
NOTE: The retaining washer must be positioned with the
raised section facing toward the gearbox.
Remove blade nut by turning clockwise. Remove the
screwdriver. Remove both washers and blade.
See INSTALLATION OF THE METAL BLADE for
illustrations. Be sure to store all parts and instructions
for future use. Never use the trimmer head with the
metal blade installed.
