CONNECTING THE SWITCH CORD

off.
• Be careful never to bend the end of the
cord when connecting it.
1. Connect the terminal ends of the two
cords on the side of the engine to the
terminal ends of the two cords on the
side of the trimmer. Note that no
distinction is made between positive and
negative nodes, and that the cords may
be connected in any combination.
2. After the cords have been connected,
use the clamp located on the side of the
engine cover to fix the ends of the cords
firmly into place.

pipe.

trimming mechanism into which the screw
is to be inserted with the hole on the main
pipe, and screw the screw firmly in.
5. Using a 10-mm wrench, screw in the
hexagonal bolt provided to fix the trimming
mechanism into place.
