1. Remove the four socket-head cap screws, bracket and
two shims. See Figure 4.
2. Remove the retaining nut, washer and gearcase clamp
screw. If possible, do not disturb the D-washer.
3. Remove the cutting attachment shield from the
gearcase.
NOTE:
It is not necessary to retain these parts.
IMPORTANT!
You must know the model designation of the unit before
you begin. Some units have an outer tube of a different
diameter so the correct size parts must be used to secure
the shield properly.
IMPORTANT!
CAUTION!
The D-Washer is a spacer that prevents overtightening
and must remain in place to prevent possible damage to
the gearcase clamp.
WARNING!
A cutting attachment shield or other protective device is
no guarantee of protection against ricochet. YOU MUST
ALWAYS GUARD AGAINST FLYING DEBRIS!
