Assembling the blade
_ ARNING:
The blade will contin-
ue to spin after the engine stops or
after the throttle trigger has been re-
leased. To avoid serious injury,
make sure the blade has stopped
coasting and disconnect the spark
plug before performing work on the
blade.
_ ARNING:
Wear protective
gloves when handling or performing
maintenance on the blade to avoid
injury. The blade is sharp and can
cut you even when it is not moving.
1. Align hole in the dust cup with the hoIe in
the side of the bevel gear by rotating the
dust cup (A).
2. Insert a small screwdriver into aligned
holes. This will keep the output shaft from
turning while loosening the locking nut (E).
3. While holding the screwdriver in position,
remove locking nut by turning clockwise.
4. Remove both washers (C and D) and
the blade (B) from the output shaft.
5. Install blade onto output shaft.
6. Reinstall both washers and locking nut
(counterclockwise).
7. Tighten locking nut firmly with a wrench
while hoiding screwdriver in position.
8. Remove the screwdriver.
9. Turn blade by hand. If the blade binds
against the shield, or appears to be un-
even, the blade is not centered, and
you must reinstall.

Under no circum-
stances should the edger be used
without the blade guard installed.
