HOW TO USE THE CURB-HOPPING
FEATURE
Because the front wheel and the right rear wheel
are adjustable, the edger can be used on uneven
surfaces, such as a curb shown in Figure 14. Set the
wheel position as follows:
1. Stop the engine.
2. Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark
plug.
3. Loosen the front wheel knob.
4. Slide the front wheel to the best position to clear
the curb and balance the unit.
5. Securely tighten the front wheel knob.
6. Use the curb height adjustment lever to lower the
front wheel. Lower the front wheel until the front
wheel is level with the left rear wheel and the unit
is sitting on the curb. (See Figure 14)
7. Loosen the rear wheel knob.
8. Lower the right rear wheel until the edger is level
and the left rear wheel is on the curb.
9. Securely tighten the rear wheel knob.
10. Connect the spark plug wire to the spark plug.
OPERATION
EDGING TIPS
• Edging is best performed when conditions are
dry. If the soil is too wet, dirt becomes packed
around the blade causing premature belt wear and
decreased performance.
• If dirt does become packed around the blade, stop
the engine and remove the wire from the spark plug.
Remove the front guard cover, clean around the
blade and then refit the guard cover.
• For deep edging, first cut at shallow depths. Then, cut
at greater depths until the desired depth is obtained.
• For uniform edging, make sure the blade guide
rides on the surface.
• Edging can be customised by varying the number
of passes and by the distance the blade is from the
WARNING
Read the Operator’s manual. Know location
and functions of all controls. Keep all safety
devices and shields in place. Never allow
children or uninstructed adults to operate the
edger. Shut off engine before unclogging blade
or making repairs. Keep bystanders away from
machine. Keep away from the blade and all
rotating parts, which cause injury.
