INSTALLATION OF THE METAL BLADE

WARNING: Wear protective gloves when handling or performing maintenance on the blade to avoid injury. The blade is sharp and can cut you even when it is not moving.

WARNING: Do not use any blades, or fastening hardware other than the washers and nuts shown in the following illustrations. These parts must be provided by Poulan/Weed Eater and installed as shown below. Failure to use proper parts can cause the blade to fly off and seriously hurt you or others.

NOTE: The dust cup and retaining washer are located on the gearbox shaft and not in the parts bag. All other fasteners mentioned in the follow- ing assembly steps are in the parts bag.

1.Remove the retaining washer from the threaded shaft of the gearbox. Leave the dust cup on the shaft.
