To separate the shaft sections:
Release the straining screw (1).
Pull out the fixing pin (2).
Pull the lower shaft tube (3) with gearbox
from the female coupling.
When assembling ensure that the hollow shaft
in the lower shaft tube mates with the quadrant
in the upper part of the drive shaft. When
assembling it may be necessary to lightly jiggle
the lower shaft tube. The fixing pin (2) must
audibly lock into position in the shaft tube
holes.
Ten tighten the straining screw (1).
Tip: The holes on both sides enables the lower
shaft tube to be attached either way, i.e. turned
through 180°. This is of particular advantage if
hedge trimming above head height.
Note: The following SOLO spare parts are
designed especially for use with the brushcutter
SOLO 129LTS with sectional shaft:
Shaft tube extension (SOLO part no. 69 00
608, extension of about 800 mm) for a very
long reach.
Extra short lower shaft tube (SOLO part no.
69 00 265, approx. 210 mm) for close work.

The desired cutting blade angle can be attained
by releasing the cutting edge angle straining
screw (6). Always set the desired angle via the
pivoting lever (7). Never touch the blades when
setting the cutting blade angle. Tighten the
cutting edge angle straining screw (6).
Tip: Some users find it particularly useful that
the loop handle on the SOLO brushcutter can
easily be turned by 90° on the shaft tube due to
the tensioning toggle.
