Edging Tips
WARNING
Read the operator's manual. Know location and functions of all controls. Keep all safety devices and shields in place.
Never allow children or uninstructed adults to operate the Edger . Keep bystanders away from machine . Keep away from
the blade and all rotating parts, which can cause injury .
•
Edging is best performed when conditions are dry . If the soil is too wet, dirt becomes packed around the blade
causing premature wear and poor performance .
•
If dirt does become packed around the blade, stop the engine and remove the wire from the spark plug . Remove the
packed dirt and debris from the blade .
•
For deep edging, first cut at shallow depths . Then, cut at greater depths until the desired depth is obtained .
•
Edging can be customized by varying the number of passes and the distance between the blade and the edge of
sidewalk, driveway or curb .
