Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries. Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from all
openings. Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts have come to a complete stop
before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit. Allow unit to cool before performing service.
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 side-
walk and grass using a minimum blade depth, usually with about 13
mm (1/2 in.) of the blade into the ground.
5. Before edging, plan your direction of travel so that the unit will al-
ways be positioned on your right side and so that you walk on a hard
surface whenever possible.
