STEP 4: To Make Borders and Edges,
Install the Edger Attachment
Tocreate borders or edges near walks,
driveways, flower beds, etc., you must
remove the four tine sections and install
the Edger Attachment (this attachment
was supplied with the unit - see Page5).
To Install the EdgerAttachment:
1. Gathertogether the following parts
(see Figure 4): (A) Border/EdgerTine; (B)
Long Bushing; (C) Border/EdgerWheel
and (D) Short Bushing.
2. Prop the machine carefully on the front
of the tubular carrying handle. Thework
surface should be firm and flat. NOTE:
Usually the Border/Edger Tine is mounted
on the right-side of the unit for right-
handed persons, and on the left-side of
the unit for left-handed persons.
3. Flip open the ring on the two ring lock
pins (E, Figures 3 and 4) and remove the
ring lock pin on eachtine shaft.
IMPORTANT:The ring lock pin is under
spring tension - use carewhen removing
or replacing the ring lock pin.
4. It is important for proper tilling perfor-
mance that the tine sections be later rein-
stalled in their original patterns. Mark the
position of eachtine section (Left-Outer,
Left-Inner, etc.) before removing them.
Refer to Figures 3 and 9 for tine pattern
information. See also fine Removaland
Installation in Section 5.
5. Install the short bushing (D, Figure4)
on the right-hand or left-hand tine shaft.
Then place the Border/Edgerwheel (C) on

the same shaft - the wheel hub should
face toward the tiller. Insert the ring lock
pin through the rounded side of the tine
shaft and snap the ring down over the
shaft (see DETAIL- Ring Lock Pin,
Figure 4).
6. Slide the long bushing (B) on the
opposite side shaft. Then install the
Border/Edgertine (A) and secure it with
the ring lock pin.
See Section 4 for instructions on using
the Border/EdgerAttachment.
See Tine Removaland Installation in Sec-
tion 5 for information on how to reinstall
the tines.
