Installing a Trimmer Head

NOTE:

The C242 is shipped with Holder A, Holder B,

shaft bolt, and bolt guard installed. The shaft

bolt is a LEFT-HAND thread. Remove it by turn-

ing CLOCKWISE!

1. With the gear case output shaft facing

up, rotate the gearshaft and holder A

until the hole in holder A aligns with the

matching hole in the gear case flange,

and then lock the holder to the gear by

inserting the long end of the hex wrench

through both holes. See Figure 11A.

2. Using the combination spark plug/

screwdriver wrench, remove the shaft

bolt and bolt guard. See Figure 11A.

NOTE:

Make sure holder B is installed on the gear-

case with the splined hole engaging the gear-

case shaft.

3. Using the hex wrench to secure Holder

A , install and hand-tighten the trimmer

head (counter-clockwise to install).

See Figure 11B.

5. Remove the hex wrench from the gear

case and holder.

The C242 should now be completely

assembled to operate as a trimmer.
