OPERATING TECHNIQUES
1. Before edging, water the area to soften the ground to make edging
easier.
2
Before edging, check the area and remove all obstacles and
objects that could be thrown.
3. Plan to edge regularly to make it easier to keep a neat edge and to
avoid having to make more than one pass.
NOTE
Blade depth may have to be adjusted due to differences in height
between the hard surface and the top of the grass.
WARNING
Never adjust blade height with engine running, otherwise serious
personal injury may result.
4. Adjust the blade's depth of cut to produce a fine cut between
sidewalk and grass using a minimum blade depth, usually with
about 13 mm (1/2 in.) of the blade into the ground.
5. Before edging, plan your direction of travel so that the unit will
always be positioned on your right side and so that you walk on a
hard surface whenever possible.
6. Hold edger as shown.
WARNING
Before edging, be sure to read and understand the entire Operator's
Manual to avoid the chance of serious injury.
7. When starting to edge, run the engine at full throttle, and lower the
blade gently into the ground, being careful not to hit the concrete
with the blade.
8. Don't force the blade. Move as quickly as the blade will allow.
WARNING
The complete unit, specifically the drive shaft assembly may
become very hot (to hot to touch) during use. Avoid contact during
and immediately after operation, otherwise serious personal injury
may result.
