TIPS FOR BEST EDGING RESULTS
• Do not force the edger. Edge
the first time at a lesser
depth,(No more than 1/2" depth
cut per pass), then do the area
again with a deeper setting.
• Walk the edger at a slow, even
pace.
Check the blade condition.
As
it wears it becomes smaller,
thus reducing the cutting depth
performance.
Replace with a
new blade when the blade has
worn to the blade's wear limit
holes (Fig. 15).
ADJUST BELT TENSION

the blade turns.

CAUTION:
Wear gloves to prevent injury when handling the unit.
For a new engine, change the oil

flow freely and carry away more
impurities.
1.
Remove the oil fill plug.
2.
Pour the oil out of the oil fill
hole and into a container by
tipping the unit to a vertical
position (Fig. 20). Allow

Wipe up any oil residue on
the unit and clean up any oil
that may have spilled.
Dispose of the oil according
to Federal, State and local
regulations.
4.
Refill the crankcase with
3.04 fl.oz. (90 ml) of SAE 30
SF, SG, SH oil.

Use the bottle and
spout saved from initial
use to measure the
correct amount of oil.
The top of the label on
the bottle measures
approximately
3.04 fl.oz.
(90 ml) (Fig. 22). Check
the level, See Checking
the Oil Level. If the level
