5.3 Cutter installation

Always switch off the engine, pull the spark plug cap
and wear protective gloves when fitting or replacing
the cutter!
A) Fitting the 3-tooth brush cutting blade
and the 4-tooth grass cutter (available as accessory)
Fig. 5
• Place the brush cutting blade on the pressure
piece (25), ensuring that the cutting edges are
facing in an anti-clockwise rotational direction
(when looking at the tool in proper working
position).
• Fix the pressure washer (26).
• Place the nut protector (27) and turn safety nut (28)
onto the shaft.
Caution! Left hand thread - tighten counter
clockwise.
Take care that all parts are centered.
• Block the shaft with the stop pin (4) and tighten nut.
It is imperative that the safety nut (28) is
replaced, if it has become loose due to
frequent rem oval and tightening.
B) Fitting the chisel-tooth cutter (available as
accessory)

ENGLISH 10
The procedure for installing the chisel tooth blade is
similar to the installation of the 3-tooth brush cutting
blade.
When using a chisel tooth blade, always
ensure that the metal guard (60 12 841) is
fitted in place of the guard and the retaining bracket.
• Unscrew the guard together with the retainer.
• Unscrew the four bolts and remove the retaining
bracket from the angular gearbox.
• Use the same four bolts to screw the metal guard
(60 12 841) onto the angular gearbox.
Transport protection for metal cutting blades
When the metal cutting blades are attached, the
transport protector must always be attached to cover
the blades when the device is being stored or
transported, or during work breaks during which the
engine is switched off.
Fig. 7
• Position the transport protector with the
corresponding recess at one of the tips of the
metal cutting blade.
• Press the two tabs (a) on the transport protector
together to increase the internal diameter of the
transport protector.
• Lay the transport protector right over the cutting
tool. Position the inner shoulder (b) between the
metal cutting blade and the running disc.
• Open the two tabs again, and in doing so also
position the inner shoulder between the metal
cutting tool and the running disc at tab (c).
When restarting work, take the transport protector
back off by pressing the two tabs (a) together before
starting the engine.
