ASSEMBLY

Assembling and dismantling the two-part shaft

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 the harness should always be worn. 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:

Pull out the red strap.

The hip strap and one shoulder strap will be automatically released at the same time and the

harness and the engine unit will slide to the ground.

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.

Equal load on shoulders

A well matched saw and harness make work much easier. Adjust the harness to give the best working stance. Adjust the side straps so that the weight is equally divided across the shoulders.

Off-loading strap The off-loading strap is intended to off-load the weight from the shaft. Adjust the length of the strap so that the cutting equipment balances just above the ground.
