WARNING
Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a
poison gas. Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness, serious in-
jury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS position
unit so that exhaust is directed away from your face and body.
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. Loosen adjustment knob and adjust the blade's depth of cut to
produce a ne cut between sidewalk and grass using a minimum
blade depth, usually with about 13 mm (1/2 in.) of the blade into
the ground. Tighten adjustment knob.
5. Before edging, plan your direction of travel so that the unit will
always be positioned on your right side and so that you walk on a
hard surface whenever possible.
6. Hold edger as shown.
WARNING
Before edging, be sure to read and understand the entire Operator's
Manual to avoid the chance of serious injury.
7. When starting to edge, run the engine at full throttle, and lower the
blade gently into the ground, being careful not to hit the concrete
with the blade.
8. Don't force the blade. Move as quickly as the blade will allow.
WARNING
The complete unit, specically the drive shaft assembly and muf-
er exhaust area may become very hot during use. Avoid contact
during and immediately after operation, otherwise serious personal
injury may result.
