18

STOPPING ENGINE

1. Release throttle trigger and allow engine to idle.
2. Place stop switch in STOP position.
WARNING
If engine does not stop, close choke to stall engine. Have your
ECHO Dealer inspect and repair stop switch before using edger
again or serious personal injury may result.

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 1/2" of the blade into the ground.
