Preparing the equipment for use
4. Preparing the equipment for use
For shipping purposes, the power tool is partly
disassembled and has to be reassembled prior to
use.
Only use the power tool after it has been fully
assembled.
Ensure that the tank is fully drained before any
assembly, disassembly or modification.
4.1 Shield installation
Insert square nuts (b) from above on both sides
of the shield.
Position the shield on the shaft tube so it is
pointing towards the engine.
Insert fixing screws (a) and tighten evenly.
Important: The relevant clamp tab (c) must be
fixed in the holes provided on either side of the
shaft tube.

In the pre-assembled
condition, undo both
screws (a) and square
nuts (b).
Leave the remaining
components in their pre-
assembled state.
Correct position of the line trimmer on the
shield:
a) The line trimmer must be secured tightly to the
shield using two screws, as shown in the diagram.
4.2 Fitting the safety end-stop on the loop
handle
Always install the safety end-stop (a) on the
operator side of the power tool.
If, during use, you carry the power tool on your r.h.
side, install the safety end-stop in l.h. orientation.
However, if, during use, you carry the power tool
on your l.h. side, install the safety end-stop in r.h.
orientation.
Install the safety end-stop (a) on the loop handle
and secure with the spring clip (b).
The position of the loop handle can be moved
along the shaft tube after loosening screw (c)
(Torx-25), and thus be positioned to suit the height
of the user.
Finally, tighten screw (c), holding the nut opposite it
in place with an open-ended spanner to stop it
turning as well.
In general, before starting work, check the
loop handle and safety end-stop are seated
tightly and correctly.
