Install Harness Clamp
Note: Some models require installation of harness
clamp. If your unit does not have a clamp follow these
directions.
Remove the shield and gear case as an assem-
bly:
1. Loosen two screws (M) that clamp the gear
case to the shaft.
2. Remove locating screw (N) from the top of the
gear case.
3. Pull the shield and gear case assembly off the
drive shaft housing.
Note: Prevent the exible drive cable from sliding
out of the drive shaft housing. If the cable does slide
free, clean any dirt from the cable and re-lubricate
with lithium-based grease prior to reassembly.
Remove the front handle:
1. Remove the screws, nuts, and back plate from
the handle.
2. Remove the handle.
Install the clamp:
1. Slightly spread the clamp open and slide it on to
the driveshaft. Do not tighten the clamp.
Install Handle / Barrier Bar:
Note: The barrier bar is required when using grass
or weed blades. Units equipped with U-handles do
not require installation of the barrier bar.
SRM’s with 4-screw front handles:
1. Position the front handle on the driveshaft
and install the barrier bar using four 5x35 mm
screws and four new nuts included with the kit.
The handle must be at least 250 mm (10 in.)
from the center of the rear handle grip.
2. Adjust the handle position for comfortable oper-
ation, and tighten screws securely.
