STARTiNg THe eNgiNe
To start the edger's engine, proceed as follows:
1.
Attach the spark plug wire to the spark plug. Make certain the
metal cap on the end of the spark plug wire is fastened securely
over the metal tip on the spark plug.
2.
Move the blade depth control lever back to the START position in
the adjacent (top) notch.
3.
Depress the primer bulb three times, pausing two to three
seconds between each push. In cold weather (below 50°F /19°C),
it may be necessary to depress the primer bulb four or five times.
NOTE: Using the primer to restart a warm engine after a short
shutdown is usually not necessary. Doing so may result in a flooded
engine.
4.
Standing behind the edger, depress the blade control bail and
hold it against the upper handle with your left hand.
WARNiNg
This control mechanism is a safety device. Never attempt to bypass
its operation.
5.
With your right hand, grasp the recoil starter handle and slowly
pull the rope outward until engine reaches the start of its com-
pression cycle (the rope will pull slightly harder at this point).
6.
After slowly allowing the rope to recoil, pull the rope with a rapid,
continuous, full arm stroke. Keep a firm grip on starter handle
throughout the entire stroke.
7.
Allow the starter handle to slowly return to the eyebolt.
NOTE: If the engine fails to start after three pulls, depress the primer
an additional two times before pulling the starter rope again.
SToPPiNg THe eNgiNe
To stop the edger's engine, release the blade control bail.
OPERATION
edgiNg
Rotating cutting blade may throw objects causing personal injury.
Keep area clear of bystanders and do not operate without guards in
place.
Do not lower blade if blade is over concrete, asphalt, rocks or the like.
Blade can strike supporting surface, resulting in personal injury or
property damage.
To begin edging, proceed as follows:
1.
Move edger to an area to be edged, making sure that the left rear
wheel is on a hard surface and the blade is over the area to be
cut. See Figure 7.
2.
With the blade control bail squeezed against the handle in the
operating position, make a pass along area to be edged before
proceeding to the next notch. The further forward that the blade
depth control lever is moved, the deeper or lower the blade will
cut into the ground. Several passes may be necessary to obtain
the desired depth of cut. Do not lower blade more than one depth
notch at a time without making a pass.
3.
For best results, proceed slowly along the path being edged.
Slowly move edger back and forth through cutting area, again
making sure to keep the left rear wheel on the hard surface and
the blade in the cutting path, close to but not touching the edge of
the hard surface.
4.
Once you have finished edging selected area, raise the blade
depth control lever back into the START position, move to the next
area to be edged, and proceed again from step 1.
