17 Setting the safety snap-on coupling
The safety snap-on coupling disengages in the event of the thread
jamming and thus prevents the hook from being misadjusted or damaged.

Proper setting
The 4 threaded pins (1) on the two adjusting rings next to the safety snap-
on coupling (3) must be parallel to one another. After the safety snap-on
coupling has disengaged, they are no longer parallel.
To latch the safety snap-on coupling:
1. Tilt the machine head ( p. 17).
2. Turn the left adjusting ring (2) such that the threaded pins (1) are
parallel to one another.
The safety snap-on coupling latches into place.
