Powerhead
WARNING:
To reduce risk of injury:
• Before any use, be sure everyone using this unit
reads and understands all manufacturer's safety
instructions and other information contained in
manufacturer's manual.
• Never apply power without an attachment being
properly mounted to the powerhead.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, turn unit off and
remove the battery pack before making any
adjustments or removing/installing attachments
or accessories, when replacing line, or prior to
cleaning.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Your string trimmer is designed such that the power head
can separate from the trimmer attachment by releasing
clamp
14
and gently pulling them apart by their shafts.
This should only be done with the power switch off and the
battery pack removed. Inside the shaft of the power head
is a mechanical coupling that will spin if the power head is
turned on. This coupling can cause severe injury if contacted
while the power head is operating .
The coupling is a universal type compatible with the
coupling used on many electric and gasoline powered
“split boom” products. Use only attachments recommended
by CRAFTSMAN. Other attachments may fit this product.
Use of attachments other than those recommended by
CRAFTSMAN may increase the risk of injury.
CAUTION:
in no case should a snow
blower/thrower attachment be used.
Attaching the Auxiliary Handle (Fig. A, C)
1. Place the auxiliary handle
4
on top of the handle base
22
so the upper trimmer pole
6
is between them.
2. Hold the auxiliary handle in place and slide the handle
bolts
23
into the handle from the top, threading them
into the handle base.
3. Tighten the handle bolts with the supplied hex wrench .
Ensure the handle is securely attached.
4. Repeat for the other side of the auxiliary handle.
