ATTACHING THE POWER HEAD TO THE 

BRUSHCUTTER ATTACHMENT

See Figure 2.

      WARNING: 

Never attach or adjust any attachment while power head 
is running. Failure to stop the engine can cause serious 
personal injury.

NOTE: 

This attachment is a dedicated brushcutter.

The attachment connects to the power head by means of 
a coupler device.

n

  Loosen the knob on the coupler of the power head shaft 

and remove the end cap from the attachment.

n

  Push in the button located on the attachment shaft. Align 

the button with the guide recess on the power head coupler 
and slide the two shafts together. Rotate the attachment 
shaft until the button locks into the positioning hole.

    NOTE:  

If the button does not release completely in the 

positioning  hole,  the  shafts  are  not  locked  into  place.  
Slightly rotate from side to side until the button is locked 
into place.

n

  Tighten the knob securely.

      WARNING:

Be certain the knob is fully tightened before operating 
equipment. Check it periodically for tightness during 
use to avoid serious personal injury.

REMOVING THE ATTACHMENT FROM THE 
POWER HEAD

To remove or change the attachment:

n

  Loosen the knob.

ATTACHING THE STORAGE HANGER

See Figure 3.

There are two ways to hang your attachment for storage.

n

  To use the hanger cap, push in the button and place 

the hanger cap over end of the lower end attachment 

shaft. Slightly rotate the cap from side to side until the 

button locks into place.

n

used for hanging purposes as well.

ATTACHING THE “J” BARRIER HANDLE

trol and maximizing operator safety when using a brush-

cutter.

n

  Hold the top and bottom clamp snugly in position on 

the shaft housing so that handle will be located to the 

operator's left.
