OPERATION 99944200465
5. When starting to work, run the engine at full throttle, and
lower the blade gently into the ground. Travel around
perimeter of bed, allowing the Redefiner to improve bed's
edge.
6. Do not force the blade. Move only as quickly as conditions
will allow. If performance suffers or engine RPM drops,
reduce walking speed or decrease blade depth and allow
engine RPM to return to normal before continuing.
Note: Blade height may need to be adjusted due to differences
in height between the bed and the top of the grass.
Never adjust blade height while engine is running, otherwise serious personal injury may result.
7. Loosen adjustment knob (A) and adjust the blade’s depth of
cut. Tighten adjustment knob (A) when desired blade height
is achieved.
8. If shield clogs with mud or debris, do not hit unit against
hard surfaces to clean, or damage to unit may occur. Stop
engine and unclog shield with a suitable tool.
Be sure blade has completely stopped spinning before setting
unit on concrete or other hard surface. Never allow spinning blade
to contact hard surfaces. Carbide teeth on blade can break, or
damage to surface can occur.
The complete unit, specifically the drive shaft assembly
and muffler exhaust area may become very hot during use.
Avoid contact during and immediately after operation,
otherwise serious personal injury may result.
Edging Operation

avoid the chance of serious personal injury.
1. Before edging, water the area to soften the ground to make edging easier.
