Preparations
Before you can put the brushcutter into operation, you must
assemble and prepare it for regular operation.
The brushcutter is not allowed to be started until it
has been completely assembled and a functional
test has been carried out!
Wear protective gloves for all work on the brus-
hcutter!
Installing the handle
Depending on whether you have decided to purchase the
BCX3400 or the BCX3410 brushcutter, your machine will be
equipped with a C-handle or with a U-handle.
U-handle
To install the handle, lay down the brushcutter so that it is resting
on its foot in stable position.
The tool you will require is the big Allen key.
1 Place the anti-slip insert (
1
) in the handle mount (
2
) so that
it lines up flush with the handle mount.
2 Insert the handle as shown in the illustration.
3 Place the second anti-slip insert (
3
) on the handle (
2
) so
that it also lines up flush with the handle mount.
4 Place the handle fastening cap (
4
) on top and hold it firm-
ly.
5 Insert the nuts (
5
) from underneath into the drilled holes of
the handle mount, hold them in place and tighten the screws
firmly (
6
) at the same time (do not forget the washers).
C-handle
To install the handle, lay down the brushcutter so that it is resting
on its foot in stable position.
The tool you will require is the medium-sized Allen key.
1 Place the handle mount (
1
), as shown in the illustration,
from the rear side onto the anti-slip sleeve (
2
) on the main
tube and hold it firmly.
Place the C-handle (
3
), as shown in the illustration, from
above onto the anti-slip sleeve (
2
) so that it is resting on
the handle mount.
3 Fasten the handle by tightening the screws (
4
) (do not forget
the washers).
