2.3.2 Description of machine and its components
The F-550 brush cutter frame (on
Pic. 3
) is made of a welded steel frame 11 from formed sheet metal, which all essential machine
components are attached to. The handlebars are mounted to the frame with screw connections 3 and their height may be adjusted into
six positions. All control elements ( 1 , 2 and 4 ) for safe control of the machine are ergonomically distributed along the handlebars.
The handle 12 is used to firmly grasp and direct the machine during operation. A wheel drive clutch lever 2 is located on the left
side of the handlebars, which controls the motion of the machine forward. On the right side is a tool drive clutch lever 1 equipped with
a safety lock to prevent accidental operation 16 , which turns the work tool (blade) drive on or off. If the operator releases the
handles in an emergency, both of the control levers return to the default position and the engine is disengaged from transmitting force. The
blade drive is equipped with an automatic braking device, which stops the blade
54
in the event of an emergency. Motor speed is controlled
by the throttle lever 4 . Motion is secured by wheels 15 with arrows pattern, which are driven by a worm-gear unit. It provides smooth
shifting of force to the wheel via a belt-driven clutch
(the machine moves forward without jerking)
. The wheel and blade drive transmission
part are covered by plastic housing 9 and 10 . The brake, blade drive clutch, and belt gears in front are also covered from above by a
plastic cover 9 connected by screws to the frame. Pressed on the shaft at the front of the frame is a blade holder with blade 7 . The
blade is fixed and sharp at the ends. The main deck comprises a cover 8 made from hot-dip galvanized
(HDG)
sheet metal, which except
for the front, spans further than the blade to prevent injury to the operator from flying parts of the mowed area. The deck is riveted from
several parts and screwed to the frame. A plastic shroud is fastened between the wheels. During operation, the machine is guided by a
swivel, height-adjustable spur 5 , which is attached to the front of the machine frame.
