ASSEMBLY
Adjusting the harness and clearing
saw
Quick release
On the front is an easily
accessible, quick release
catch. 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.
Even load on the
shoulders
A well-adjusted harness and
clearing saw significantly
facilitates working. Adjust
the harness for the best
working position. Tension
the side straps so that the
weight is evenly distributed
across the shoulders.
Correct height
Adjust the support strap so
that the cutting attachment
is parallel to the ground.
Correct balance
The cutting attachment
should rest lightly on the
ground. If you use a saw
blade it should balance about
10 cm above the ground to
prevent contact with stones
and the like. Adjust the
position of the support strap
attachment ring to balance
the clearing saw correctly.
!
WARNING!
When working with the clearing saw it
should always be hooked in the harness.
If this is not done, you cannot control the
clearing saw safely and this can result in
injury to yourself or someone else. Never
use a harness with a defective quick
release catch.
