holes in the cutting head shield with the holes in the mount
bracket. (Fig. 1)

cutting head shield until finger tight.
3. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, tighten the screws until the
cutting head shield is firmly in place. Tighten the screws equally.
The gap between the mount bracket and the cutting head shield
