Attachment, adjustment and detachment of the shoulder strap
Attachment
Place the strap hook into the hanger which is located on the shaft between the grip and the handle.
Adjustment
Adjust the strap length so that the nylon cutting head will be kept parallel to the ground (Fig. 9).
Detachment (NORMAL)
Remove the strap hook from the hanger
Detachment (EMERGENCY)
In an emergency, release the throttle lever, firmly pull the release belt upward and detach the machine from you (Fig. 10). Be extremely cautious to maintain control of the machine at this time. Do not allow the machine to be deflected toward you or anyone in the work vicinity.
Notes:
The shoulder strap has a quick release system. Check that the hook is assembled as shown in Fig. 11. If it is not, remove it and reassemble it as shown. (Fig. 11)
