INSTALLING THE CUTTING SHIELD
Use the following instructions if the cutting attachment
shield on your unit is not installed or if you ever need to
re-install it.
1. Place the cutting attachment shield onto the shaft
housing above the clamp assembly (Fig. 3).
2. Push the cutting attachment shield down to the top
of the cutting attachment assembly. Then rotate the
shield until its screw holes line up with the holes in
the cutting attachment. The shield guard should fit
into the recessed pocket (Fig. 4).
3. Install the screws with a Phillips screwdriver (Fig. 5).

INSTALL AND ADJUST THE D-HANDLE
1. Push the D-handle down onto the shaft housing and
push it on the boom (Fig. 1). The squared bolt hole in

(Fig. 2), position the D-handle to the location that
provides you the best grip.
