Bevel gear/Cutting attachment
The angle gear has two purposes:
The rst is to gear down the engine’s high speed to better suit the lower speed a saw blade or trimmer re-
quires to work e ciently.
Secondly, the angle gear contributes towards the operator’s working stance so that it is comfortable and
at the same time e cient. In other words, the power from the engine via the drive axle should be angled so
that the cutting tool works parallel with the ground.
Dismantling
Remove the angle gear from the shaft.

guard.
