ADJUSTING EDGER CUTTING DEPTH
1. Grasp the depth adjustment lever located beside the front
wheel (Fig 13).
2. To raise the cutting blade, move the lever toward the front
of the wheel bracket (Fig. 13). Lowering the wheel
decreases the cutting depth.
3. To lower the cutting blade, move the lever toward the rear
of the wheel bracket. Raising the wheel increases the
cutting depth.

HOLDING THE UNIT
Before operating the unit, stand in the operating position (Fig.
12). Check for the following:
• The operator is wearing eye protection and proper clothing.
• Both hands are holding the handle bar firmly.
• The edger wheel adjusted for proper cut depth as shown in
Figure 13 and edger positioned as shown in Figure 12.
WARNING: Always wear eye, hearing, foot and
body protection to reduce the risk of injury when
operating this unit.
TIPS FOR BEST EDGING RESULTS
• Do not force the edger. Edge the first time at a lesser
depth,(No more than 1/2” depth cut per pass), then do the
area again with a deeper setting.
• Walk the edger at a slow, even pace
• Check the blade condition. As it wears it becomes smaller,
thus reducing the cutting depth performance. Replace with a
new blade when the blade has worn to the blade’s wear limit
holes (Fig. 14).

ADJUST BELT TENSION
If blade fails to turn when the blade clutch lock-out and the
blade clutch lever are pressed, then:
1. Locate small thumb wheel on top of the belt housing (Fig. 13).
2. Turn the wheel clockwise 1 revolution to increase the
tension on the belt.
3. Try depressing the blade clutch lock-out and the blade
clutch lever and see if blade turns. If not, repeat step 2
until the blade turns.
