OPERATING TIPS
◾ ◾
Hold and guide the power head so
that the blade is vertical.
◾ ◾
Operate at no more than a normal walking pace.
◾ ◾
Cut at a steady pace. If the blade begins to bog down, you are edging too fast;
slow your pace.
◾ ◾
Do not force the blade into the ground. Light contact of the blade against the
sidewalk edge, curb, etc., is acceptable and will not damage the edger.
◾ ◾
Always walk forwards when cutting and move the edger forward. Do not pull the
edger towards you.
◾ ◾
Use the sight line to line the blade up with the edge of the bed (Fig. 7).
◾ ◾
Best appearance is obtained when grass is dry. Avoid edging in wet soil or wet
grass areas or the blade guard might clog and result in an uneven edge. If the
blade guard becomes clogged, stop the motor, remove the battery pack, and
remove debris from the blade guard.
