ASSEMBLY

ATTACHING THE FRONT HANDLE − CS30 AND SS30

See Figure 4.

Remove 2 wing nuts, 2 bolts, and clamp from the front handle.

Install the front handle onto the top side of the drive shaft housing and move it to a comfortable position.

Place the bolts through the front handle.

NOTE: The hex bolt head fits inside the hex recess molded into one side of the handle.

Reinstall the clamp, bolts, and wing nuts.

Tighten wing nut securely.

ATTACHING THE “J” HANDLE − BC30

See Figure 5.

A “J” handle must be used for ensuring the best control and maximizing operator safety when using a brushcutter.

Hold the top and bottom clamp snugly in position on the shaft housing so that handle will be located to the operator’s left.

Insert the end of the handle between the clamps.

Align the bolt holes and push the long bolt (1/4-20 x 1-1/2 in.) through the handle side.

Place short bolt (1/4-20 x 1 in.) through opposite side of clamp. Install flat washers, lock washers, and hex nuts to hold the assembly in place.

After assembly is complete, adjust the position of the handle for best balance and comfort.

Tighten the long bolt first and then the short bolt.
