Jonsered GR41/50 - Manual (Page 16)

16 – English
ASSEMBLY
2 Grass clearing
The machine should be supported in a harness when
grass clearing so that the cutting equipment is parallel to
the ground.
Vector harness
Safety release
Push down the red release lever to release the machine from
the harness.
Adjusting the harness
1 Tighten the hip strap so that it sits securely.
2 Tighten the chest strap under your left arm so that it fits
closely around your body.
3 Adjust the shoulder strap to distribute the load evenly
across your shoulders. Press downwards on the
suspension hook to load the harness.
4 Adjust the height of the suspension hook as described in
the instructions for the standard harness. (Forestry
clearing)
5 If you need to lower the suspension hook, for trimming for
example, move the suspension strap (A) to the lower
mounting point on the backplate.
6 The elastic strap (B) can be tightened to transfer more
load from the shoulder straps to the hip strap.
Correct balance
1 Forestry clearing
The machine is balanced by moving the support ring on
the machine forwards or backwards. On some models the
support ring is fixed, however, this will then have a number
of holes for the support hook. The machine is correctly
balanced when it freely hangs horizontally from the
support hook. In this way the risk of hitting stones is
reduced if you need to release the handlebar.
2 Grass clearing
Let the blade balance at a comfortable cutting height, i.e.
close to the ground.
