ASSEMBLY

Assembling and dismantling the two-part shaft (225RD, 227RD, 232RD)

Assembling:

• Make sure the handle is loose.

• Guide the cut-out on the lower section of the shaft into the coupling‘s locking plate on the upper section of the shaft. The sections are then locked together.

• Tighten the handle.

Dismantling

• Undo the handle (at least three turns).

Press the handle towards the coupling.

• Carefully twist the lower section out of the lock.

Hold both parts of the shaft and pull out the lower section from the coupling.

Adjusting the harness and clearing saw

!WARNING!

When working with the clearing saw it should always be hooked in the harness. If this is not done, you cannot control the clearing saw safely and this can result in injury to yourself or someone else. Never use a harness with a defective quick release catch.

Quick release

On the front is an easily accessible, quick release catch. Use this if the engine should catch fire or in any other emergency situation when you quickly need to take off the harness and machine.

Even load on the shoulders

A well-adjusted harness and clearing saw significantly facilitates working. Adjust the harness for the best working position. Tension the side straps so that the weight is evenly distributed across the shoulders.

Correct height

1) Forestry clearing Adjust the carrier strap so that the suspension hook comes approximately 10 cm under the hip. The blade should be angled forward a little.

2)Grass clearing

The suspension hook should hang approximately 20 cm under the hip so that the blade is parallel to the ground.

Correct balance 1)Forestry clearing

Move the suspension eye forwards or backwards. If the blade is balanced a 10- 20 cm above the ground it is easier to avoid stones.

2)Grass clearing

Let the blade balance at a comfortable clearing height, i.e. close to the ground.
