ASSEMBLY
Adjusting the harness and brush
cutter
Quick release
On the front is an easily
accessible, quick release
catch:
• Pull out the red strap.
• The hip strap and one
shoulder strap will be
automatically released at
the same time and the
harness and the engine
unit will slide to the
ground.
Use this if the engine should
catch fire or in any other
emergency situation when
you quickly need to take off
the harness and machine.
Equal load on
shoulders
A well matched saw and
harness make work much
easier. Adjust the harness to
give the best working stance.
Adjust the side straps so that
the weight is equally divided
across the shoulders.
!
WARNING!
When working with the brush cutter the
harness should always be worn. If this is
not done, you cannot control the brush
cutter safely and this can result in injury to
yourself or someone else. Never use a
harness with a defective quick release
catch.
