The rotating blade is sharp and can severely cut
body parts. The blade coasts after the edger is
turned off (See Figure 2).
Figure 2, Protect Hands And Feet
1. Keep both hands on the handles when the blade
is rotating.
2. Keep your feet and hands away from the cutting
area.
3. Do not attempt to remove cut material or hold
material to be cut when the engine is running or
the blade is moving.
4. Make sure the spark plug wire is disconnected
when clearing jammed material from the blade or
cutter head.
5. Disengage the blade and stop the engine when the
edger is transported or not in use.

n Handle Gasoline With Care
1. Gasoline is highly flammable. Never add
gasoline to a running or hot engine.
2. Refuel outdoors in an open area only. Never fill
the gasoline tank indoors.
3. After operating the edger, stop the engine and
allow the engine to cool before refueling.
4. To reduce the risk of fire, replace the gasoline cap
securely after adding fuel to the tank.
5. Use an approved gasoline container.
6. Do not store gasoline in a house.
7. If gasoline is spilled on the ground, move the edger
and the gasoline container from the area and do
not create a source of ignition.
8. If gasoline is spilled on clothing, remove the
stained clothes and replace them with clean, dry
clothes before operating the edger.

n Follow Maintenance Instructions
Carefully
1. Disconnect the spark plug lead before servicing any
part of the edger.
2. To reduce the risk of fire, do not allow excessive
grass, leaves, lubricants or gasoline to accumulate
on the edger.
3. Do not attempt to make repairs other than those
identified in this manual. Repairs not detailed in
this manual should be performed by an authorized
Scag dealer. See that only identical replacement
parts are used.
4. When cleaning, repairing, or inspecting the edger,
make certain the blade and all moving parts have
stopped. Disconnect the spark plug wire.
5. When lifting or transporting the edger, firmly grasp
a solid part of the frame. Do not lift the edger by
the clutch or height adjustment assemblies. Blade
is sharp! Be careful of the blade when lifting.
6. Do not run the edger indoors; exhaust fumes are
dangerous.
