Mounting Of Handle; Mounting Of Protector; Mounting Of Cutter Blade - Makita EBH340R Manuel D'instructions

MOUNTING OF HANDLE

– Fix the loop handle to the drive shaft by 2 bolts firmly.
– Do not adjust position of the loop handle too close to the control
grip. Keep not less than 25 cm distance between the handle and
the grip.

MOUNTING OF PROTECTOR

To meet the applicable safety provisions, only the tool/protector
combinations as indicated in the table must be used. Failure to do
so may result in serious injury or death to user or bystanders.
Be sure to use genuine MAKITA cutter blade.
– The cutter blade must be well clean, sharp and free of cracks or
breakage.
If the cutter blade contacts any hard objects or stones during
operation, stop the engine and check the blade immediately.
– Clean and sharpen or replace the cutter blade at least every
three hours of operation.
– The outside diameter of the cutter blade must not exceed
255 mm (10-1/32"). Never use any blades surpassing 255 mm
(10-1/32") in outside diameter.
CAUTION: The appropriate guard must always be installed,
for your own safety and in order to comply with
accident-prevention regulations.
Operation of the equipment without the protector
being properly in place must never be attempted.
– Fix protector to the drive shaft by 2 bolts firmly.
Never use a brushcutter without a protector or with a broken
protector.

MOUNTING OF CUTTER BLADE

Turn the machine upside down, and you can replace the cutter
blade easily.
– Fit a cutting blade and other parts in the order as in the
illustration. Thrust a bar or alien wrench into a hole of the gear
case until the cutting blade is locked and will not turn. Tighten a
nut by turning to counter-clockwise with a combination wrench.
(Note that the nut is tightened or loosened in the opposit direction
of a usual nut.)
– The nut must be re-tightened every time before use.
– For this brushcutter, we recommend the cutting attachments on
the right.
– Never attempt to cut a tree, a log, wood or other hard materials.
[Tightening torque: 28 - 48 N•m]
Note: Always wear gloves when handling the cutter blade.
