■ HOW TO USE
WARNING
1 Always wear eye protection such as safety
goggles. Never lean over the rotating cutting
head. Rocks or other debris could be thrown
into eyes and face and cause serious
personal injury.
2 Keep the blade guard and the mad guard
attached in place at all times when the unit is
operated.
3 Before starting a job, check the area and
remove all obstacles and objects that could
be thrown by the blade.
4 Do not adjust the wheel height or try to
remove anything entangled to the blade with
the engine running.
1 Before starting the engine, adjust the wheel
height for desired cutting depth (See page 16).
2 Before starting a job, plan your direction of travel
so that you can always hold the edger on you
right side and can walk on a hard surface as
much as possible.
3 When starting to edge, maintain the engine
speed at the level required to perform edging
work, and slowly have the blade cut into the
edge groove.
NOTE
• Before edging, make sure the area is soft
enough so the blade does not bog down.
• Do not move the edger into the work so fast that
the engine or blade bogs down.
• Do not operate using starting throttle lock. It may
cause unit uncontrolled, and clutch failure.
• Use care indirecting discharge to avoid
bystanders, vehicles, glass, and the like.
• When the blade guard is clogged or blade stuck,
stop the engine and clean it.
