IMPORTANT: Do not start the brushcutter until fully assembled and inspected! Installing the handle (BCM2600, BCM3300, BCM4300) A Loosen screws (A/1) and unscrew about 1-2 mm. Push the grips (A/2) into the grip mounting, as shown in the illustration. Tighten the screws only enough to hold the grips while leaving them able to be turned for final positioning. - B Push the handle about 10 to 20° forward and tighten the bolts (A/1). Attach the bowden cable to the shaft tube using the cable ties (B/3) found in the enclosed pack. NOTE: The handle must be tilted to accommodate the operator, so the exact angle will depend on the operator's body size. For easiest operation the elbows should be slightly bent, with the wrists straight. Installing the handle (BCM2310, BCM2610, BCM3310) C Take the bolts and nuts (C/4, 5) and grip bracket (C/7) from the enclosed pack.
