(ד) וטוב לעשות וכו' - וכן ראוי ונכון שלא לעשות לכתחלה הטלת הציצית בבגד של גדול ע"י קטן פחות מי"ג שנים אבל אם הוא בן י"ג שנים ויום אחד אף שלא הביא ב"ש אפילו לכתחלה אין להחמיר והארה"ח מיקל אפילו לכתחלה ע"י קטן וכ"ז דוקא בגדול עומד על גבו המלמדהו לעשות לשמה אבל בלא"ה אפילו אם כבר הטילם הקטן בבגד צריך להתירם ולחזור וליתנם:

English Translation

And it is proper to do so etc. - And similarly, it is fitting and proper that optimally, affixing the ציצית into the garment of an adult should not be done by a child under 13 years. But if the child is 13 years and 1 day, even though he did not produce 2 [pubic] hairs, even optimally there is no need to be stringent. And the Orchot Hachaim is lenient [to allow it to be done] even optimally by a child. And all this is specifically when an adult is standing by the child to teach him how to do it for the sake [of the mitzvah], but without that, even if the child already affixed them to the garment, one would be required to remove the strings and then re-affix them.
