Adjusting the harness and clearing saw

WARNING! When using a clearing saw it

! must always be hooked securely to the harness. Otherwise you will be unable to control the clearing saw safely and this can result in injury to yourself or others. Never use a harness with a defective quick release.

Put on the harness and hang the machine from the support hook. Now make a ﬁnal adjustment so that the machine is in a comfortable working position when it hangs from the harness. Tighten the screws.

Standard harness

Quick release

At the front is an easily accessible, quick release. Use this if the engine catches ﬁre or in any other emergency situation that requires you to free yourself from the machine and harness.

Spreading the load on your shoulders

A well-adjusted harness and machine makes work much easier. Adjust the harness for the best working position. Tension the side straps so that the weight is evenly distributed across both shoulders.

Correct height

Adjust the shoulder strap so that the cutting attachment is parallel to the ground.
