16BEFORE OPERATION
ARE YOUR SHOULDER HARNESS AND TRIMMER CORRECTLY ADJUSTED?
Adjusting the Harness
Adjust the harness so the quick-release latch is
at your right hip, as shown.
Balancing the Trimmer on the Shoulder
Harness
Hang the trimmer on the harness hook, and see
how it balances.
Adjust the shoulder harness, the harness hanger
on the frame pipe, and the loop handle or U-type
handlebar, so the handle or handlebars are in a
comfortable operating position, and the trimmer
hangs with its cutting attachment a few inches
above the ground (see page 19).
