Stopping; After Use; Cut Depth Control; Blades - Masport Edger Petrol 950915 Manual Del Propietário

MANUAL START MODELS. If the engine has not been running
recently, or you have cold starting problems, set the engine
control to the CHOKE position. Refer engine owner's manual.
Grasp the starter grip, pull slowly until a resistance is felt and then
pull forcefully to prevent kick-back. Repeat until the engine starts.
Do not pull the cord with a jerk or release it until fully rewound.—
When the engine starts and has warmed up for a short time,
move the control to the desired speed. Should the engine not start
due to 'flooding', move the control to SLOW and pull the starter six
times to clear the flooding.
HINTS FOR EASY STARTING
1. Stand edger on firm ground.
2. Set the height setting to the highest setting.
3. Start a warm engine with the control in the SLOW
position.
4. Keep the edger clean underneath.

damage the air cleaner and the ignition system.
REFER TO ENGINE INSTRUCTION BOOK
MAINTENANCE SECTION BEFORE TILTING
EDGER. STORE YOUR EDGER ON ITS
WHEELS, not its side.

Cut Depth Control

The single point cut height control adjusts the front wheels only.
To operate, steady the edger by grasping the handle with one
hand, pull the lever outwards from the slots with the other hand
and move it to the desired setting.
DAMAGED BLADES ARE MAJOR HAZARDS.
Check the blade mounting shaft and nut at frequent intervals for
proper tightness.
Check the blade condition frequently, particularly if the edger has
hit a foreign object or is vibrating. Your Authorised Dealer will be
happy to sharpen or replace blades as necessary, or if you prefer,
supply the parts you will need to do the job yourself.
