CONFIGURING YOUR UNIT

NOTE: Remove the blade and metal shield be- fore attaching the plastic shield and trimmer head. To remove blade, align hole in the dust cup with the hole in the side of the gearbox by rotating the blade. Insert a small screwdriver into aligned holes. This will keep the shaft from turning while loosening the blade nut. Remove blade nut by turning clockwise. Remove the screwdriver. Remove both washers and blade.
