Using The Edger - Stihl FCB-KM Manual De Instrucciones

Using the Edger

Your power edger is designed to
produce sharp contoured borders
around lawns and flower-beds. It will cut
almost all types of grass, weeds and soft
green plants.
Preparations
If the soil is very dry, spray it with water
before you start work: this softens the
soil a little and also reduces the amount
of dust created. Slightly damp green
plants are easier to cut.
: Inspect and clear the work area to
reduce the risk of injury from thrown
objects.
: Plan the best route for edging.
Always hold and operate your edger
on the right-hand side of your body.

The depth of cut varies, depending

the blade (3) just touches the
ground or breaks the surface of the
soil by no more than 1/4" (5 mm) (B)
