Removing the Gearcase from a Grass Trimmer
When converting a Shindaiwa grass
trimmer, the gearcase must first be
removed.
1. Using a hex wrench to secure the
holder, remove the trimmer head.
The trimmer head has a left-hand
thread, so turn clockwise to
remove.
2. Clean dirt and debris from the
gearcase and shaft tube.
3. Remove the debris shield and
gearcase as an assembly by
removing the gearcase locating
screw, then loosen the clamp screw
and the four machine screws.
4. Slide the gearcase from the shaft
using a twisting and pulling motion
as required. If necessary, the main
shaft can be removed from the
shaft tube with gearcase for
servicing.
NOTE:
Do not lose the the two shims.
They will be needed if the unit is
converted back to a grass trimmer.
