TiPS FOR BEST EDGING RESULTS

ground,
• Do not force the edger, At first, edge at a lower depth,
Then edge the area again with a deeper setting.
• Walk the edger at a slow, even pace
• Check the blade's condition often, As the blade wears,
it becomes smaller, reducing the cutting depth
performance, Replace with a new blade as required,
