ATTACHING THE SHIELD

WARNING: The shield must be prop- erly installed. If shield is not properly installed, damage to unit (including motor failure) will re- sult. The shield provides partial protection to the operator and others from the risk of thrown objects. Your unit is equipped with a line limiter blade, which cuts excess line to the proper length while running. The line limiter blade (on underside of shield) is sharp and can cut you.

NOTE: If shield is not properly installed, dam- age to unit (including motor failure) will result. Edge guide must be positioned on shield prior to installation on motor housing (see following il- lustration).

Edge Guide

Shield

1.Hold shield at angle to the trimmer motor housing. Align the front locking tab of the shield with the front notch of the motor housing (see illustration below).

2.Move shield toward motor housing, en- suring trimmer head passes through opening in shield without catching on shield locking tabs.

3.Tilt front of the shield towards front notch of motor housing. Push front locking tab of the shield into the front notch of the mo- tor housing. An audible snap must be heard. Ensure the cutting head remains free to rotate and the line is not caught be- tween the shield and the motor housing.

4.Push back of the shield toward the motor housing as illustrated until the rear locking tabs snap securely into the rear notches. Make sure the shield is assembled to the unit as shown in the illustration below and in the KNOW YOUR UNIT section of this manual.
