LUBRICATION
• After each 25 hours of use of your Edger,
apply light machine oil to all moving
parts.
• We recommend that the oil in the engine
crankcase be changed after each 25
hours of use thereafter.
NOTE: If the Edger is being used in sandy
or dusty areas, change the oil more fre-
quently to prevent premature engine wear.
TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL

spark plug.
• Remove the oil drain plug as shown in
first figure on this page and drain the oil
into a flat pan.
• After draining all the oil, reinstall the oil
drain plug securely.
NOTE: The oil will drain more freely when
the engine is warm.
• Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick. See first
figure on page 9.
