8. Operation
English
• Warm up the engine before adjusting the idling
speed.
■ HOW TO USE
1. Always wear eye protection such as safety
goggles. Never lean over the rotating cutting
head. Rocks or other debris could be thrown into
eyes and face and cause serious personal injury.
2. Keep the blade guard and the mad guard
attached in place at all times when the unit is
operated.
3. Before starting a job, check the area and remove
all obstacles and objects that could be thrown by
the blade.
4. Do not adjust the wheel height or try to remove
anything entangled to the blade with the engine
running.
1. Before starting the engine, adjust the wheel height
for desired cutting depth (See page 26).
2. Before starting a job, plan your direction of travel so
that you can always hold the edger on you right side
and can walk on a hard surface as much as
possible.
3. When starting to edge, maintain the engine speed at
the level required to perform edging work, and slowly
have the blade cut into the edge groove.
• Before edging, make sure the area is soft enough so
the blade does not bog down.
• Do not move the edger into the work so fast that the
engine or blade bogs down.
• Do not operate using starting throttle lock. It may
cause unit uncontrolled, and clutch failure.
• Use care indirecting discharge to avoid bystanders,
vehicles, glass, and the like.
• When the blade guard is clogged or blade stuck,
stop the engine and clean it.
