Installing a Trimmer Head
NOTE:
The C242 is shipped with Holder A, Holder B,
shaft bolt, and bolt guard installed. The shaft
bolt is a LEFT-HAND thread. Remove it by turn-
ing CLOCKWISE!
1. With the gear case output shaft facing
up, rotate the gearshaft and holder A
until the hole in holder A aligns with the
matching hole in the gear case flange,
and then lock the holder to the gear by
inserting the long end of the hex wrench
through both holes. See Figure 11A.
2. Using the combination spark plug/
screwdriver wrench, remove the shaft
bolt and bolt guard. See Figure 11A.
NOTE:
Make sure holder B is installed on the gear-
case with the splined hole engaging the gear-
case shaft.
3. Using the hex wrench to secure Holder
A , install and hand-tighten the trimmer
head (counter-clockwise to install).
See Figure 11B.
5. Remove the hex wrench from the gear
case and holder.
The C242 should now be completely
