CAUTION!
Install the blade so its printed sur-
face is visible to the operator when
the brushcutter is in the normal
operating position.
WARNING!
The blade must fit flat against the
holder flange. The blade mount-
ing hole must be centered over the
raised boss on blade holder (A).
WARNING!
Holder (B) must fit flush against the
blade and the splines engaged to
the output shaft.
WARNING!
Do not attach any blade to a unit
without proper installation of all
required parts. Failure to use the
proper parts can cause the blade
to fly off and seriously injure the
operator and/or bystanders.
IMPORTANT!
Discard blades that are bent, warped,
cracked, broken or damaged in any way.
Use a sharp blade. A dull blade is more
likely to snag and thrust.
3. Fit the blade (F) over the flange on
holder A.
4. Install blade holder (B) on the output
shaft (G).
