WARNING: Proper shoulder strap

and handlebar adjustments are required

before use. The shoulder strap clamp must be installed as shown above the

handlebar on the upper shaft (power- head end of unit).

NOTE: The lower shoulder strap clamp has two spacer tabs attached. These tabs are provided to adapt this attachment for use with powerheads that have a 1" diameter upper shaft (the shoulder strap clamp will not tight- en down securely on the 1" diameter upper shaft without using these spacer tabs). The tabs must be broken off

completely before use and placed over the screw holes on the lower shoulder

strap clamp. These tabs are not need-

ed for powerheads with a 7/8" upper shaft.

LOWER SHOULDER STRAP CLAMP

3.Insert two screws into the screw holes.

4.Secure shoulder strap clamp by

tightening screws with the hex wrench.

5.Insert your right arm and head through the shoulder strap and al- low it to rest on your left shoulder. Make sure the danger sign is on your back and the hook is to the

right side of your waist.

NOTE: A one-half twist is built in the

shoulder strap to allow the strap to rest flat on the shoulder.

6.Adjust the strap, allowing the hook to be about 6 inches below the

waist.

7.Fasten the strap hook to the upper clamp and lift the tool to the oper- ating position.

8.Try on shoulder strap and adjust for fit and balance before starting the

engine or beginning a cutting opera- tion.

NOTE: It may be necessary to

relocate the shoulder strap clamp on the shaft for proper balancing of unit.
