HOLDING THE UNIT
WARNING:
Always wear eye, hearing, hand, foot and
body protection to reduce the risk of injury when operating
this unit.
•
Stand in the operating position (Fig. 4).
•
Hold the shaft grip with the right hand. Keep the right arm
slightly bent.
•
Hold the handle with the left hand. Keep the left arm straight.
•
Hold the unit at waist level.
•
Hold the unit so that it easily contacts the ground without the
need for bending over.
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
•
Keep the wheel on the sidewalk or pavement.
•
To protect the sidewalk or pavement from damage, keep the
edger guide in contact with the edge of the sidewalk or
pavement.
•
Use the alignment guide to help maintain proper alignment (Fig. 5).
•
Keep the blade perpendicular to the ground.
•
DO NOT force the unit. Make the first cut no more than 1/2"
deep. Increase the depth by 1/2" and cut the area again. Repeat
this process until the desired depth is achieved. Refer to
Adjusting the Cutting Depth.
•
Cut at a slow, even pace.
•
Frequently check the condition of the blade. As it wears, the
blade will become smaller, reducing the cutting depth. Replace
the blade as needed. Refer to Replacing the Edger Blade.
ADJUSTING THE CUTTING DEPTH
WARNING:
To prevent serious injury, never adjust the
cutting depth while the unit is running. Always turn the unit
off and allow it to cool. Prevent the unit from starting
accidentally: For gas-powered units, disconnect the spark
plug wire. For electric-powered units, disconnect the unit
from the power source. For battery-powered units, remove
the battery.
1. Loosen the depth adjustment knob (Fig. 6).
2. Slide the wheel up or down to the desired height.
NOTE: Lowering the wheel will decrease the cutting depth. Raising
the wheel will increase the cutting depth.
3. Tighten the depth adjustment knob.
