Adapt drill to the harvester:
a.
Carefully remove tape and guard from blade.
b.
Insert battery into drill. Set drill clutch to maximum torque
(or as indicated on some models the “drill bit” position –
see below). Set drill speed to maximum setting. Open
chuck fully, then shift back to clockwise.
c.
Slide cordless drill chuck over top of drive shaft as
shown below. There should be at least ¾” of drive shaft
inside the chuck, otherwise slippage could occur.
Stop!
You are about to engage the drive of this machine. Ensure that the blade is free of
obstruction and that it is not near you or anyone else.
d.
Grasp the keyless chuck with your left hand, and slowly squeeze
the trigger until the drill starts to turn and the chuck makes
contact with the drive shaft (H) . As it does so, the macramé
roller (B) should start to turn and the blade will begin to
reciprocate back and forth. Firmly grip the chuck and hit the
trigger again to seat the chuck securely onto the drive shaft. Be
careful not to pinch your fingers between the chuck and the
harvester frame.
e.
Back the clutch off to 1/2 of its max setting. This should allow
adequate operating torque and jam protection for the harvester.
f.
Hold the battery end of the drill against the drill support arm (M)
and wrap the velcro strap around them as shown to the right.
This merely keeps the drill stationary when the harvester is
transported.
Stop!
Remove battery from drill
