Assembly: Blade T231X
Mount the Cutting Blade
Turn the T31X upside down so the
gearcase output shaft is facing UP and re-
move the shaft bolt, bolt guard and holder
B from the gearcase shaft.
1. Align the hole in blade holder A with
the matching hole in the gearcase
flange and then temporarily lock the
output shaft by inserting
a hex wrench through both holes. See
Figure 1.
. Slide the safety clip off-center.
See Figure 13.
3. Fit the blade over the safety clip and
then center it over the flange on holder
A. See Figure 14.
CAUTION!
Install the blade so its printed sur-
face is visible to the operator when
the brushcutter is in the normal
operating position.
WARNING!
The blade must fit flat
against the holder flange.
The blade mounting hole must be
centered over the raised boss on
blade holder A.
NOTE:
When installing certain blades, it may be nec-
essary to temporarily remove the safety clip.
4. Lock the blade in place by centering
the safety clip on the output shaft. See
Figure 14.
WARNING!
Never operate the T231X
without the safety clip in
place!
IMPORTANT!
The machined recess in holder B must
completely surround the safety clip, and
both holders must be flat against the
surface of the blade.
