before shutting off engine.

Operation Techniques
Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a poison gas. Breathing CO can cause
unconsciousness, serious injury, 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.
Never adjust blade height with engine running, otherwise serious personal injury may result.
