Assembly (continued)
Installing Brushcutter Blade T282X
1.
Turn the unit upside down so the gear
case output shaft is facing UP and
remove the shaft bolt, bolt guard and
holder B from the gear case shaft.
2.
Align the hole in blade holder A with
the matching hole in the gear case
flange and then temporarily lock the
output shaft by inserting a hex wrench
through both holes.
3.
Fit the blade over the flange on holder A.
4.
Install blade holder B on the output shaft.
CAUTION!
Install the blade so its printed surface
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 mounting
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.
5.
Install the bolt guard and then the blade
retaining bolt. Using the combination
spark plug wrench/screwdriver, tighten
the bolt firmly in a counter-clockwise
direction.
6.
Remove the hex wrench.
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.
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.
