Assembling the blade guard and
grass blade
WARNING!
Do not attach any blade to the unit
without proper installation of all required
parts. Failure to use the proper parts can
cause the blade to fly off and seriously
injure the operator and/or bystanders.
Under no circumstances may the cutting
equipment be used without an approved
guard fitted. See the chapter
“Technical
data”. If the wrong guard or a defective
guard is fitted this can cause serious
personal injury.
