USING THE EDGER ATTACHMENT
See Figure 4.

handle. Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.
The edger should be held at a comfortable position with the
rear handle about hip height.

in oil dripping from the muffler.

or disconnect from the power supply.
Loosen the adjusting knob and move the wheel arm up
to increase the depth or down to decrease the depth.

securely.
Replace the spark plug wire or connect to the power
supply and start the unit.
NOTE: Adjust the blade depth from 1/2 in. to 1 in. deep
initially. Make a shallow cut to test the cutting depth. If the
cutting depth needs adjusting, this should be done progres-
sively until the desired depth is reached.
