Adjusting the harness and clearing saw

WARNING! When using a clearing saw it

!must always be hooked securely to the harness. Otherwise you will be unable to control the clearing saw safely and this can result in injury to yourself or others. Never use a harness with a defective quick release.

Standard harness

Safety release

At the front is an easily accessible, quick release. Use this if the engine catches ﬁre or in any other emergency situation that requires you to free yourself from the machine and harness.

Spreading the load on your shoulders

A well-adjusted harness and machine makes work much easier. Adjust the harness for the best working position. Tension the side straps so that the weight is evenly distributed across both shoulders.

Correct height

1Forestry clearing

The machine should be supported in a harness when forestry clearing so that the cutting equipment is angled slightly forwards in relation to the ground. Adjust the height using the strap on the harness for the support hook.

2Grass clearing

The machine should be supported in a harness when grass clearing so that the cutting equipment is parallel to the ground.

Vector harness

2Tighten the chest strap under your left arm so that it ﬁts closely around your body.
