eye, hearing, foot and body
protection to reduce the risk of
injury when operating this unit.
Before operating the unit, stand in the
operating position (Fig. 16). Check for the
following:
• The operator is wearing eye protection
and proper clothing.
• Both hands are holding the handle bar
firmly.
• The edger wheel adjusted for proper
cut depth as shown in Figure 17 and
edger positioned as shown in Fig. 16.
ADJUSTING
EDGER CUTTING DEPTH
1.
Grasp the depth adjustment lever
located beside the front wheel (Fig. 17).
2.

lever toward the front of the wheel
bracket (Fig. 17).
3.
To lower the cutting blade, move the
lever toward the rear of the wheel
bracket.

NOTE: Make sure you have a firm grip on the unit. The spinning
blade will contact the ground before the wheel does and
will create continuous forward thrust.
4.
Walk slowly behind the unit while maintaining a firm grip on the unit.
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. 18).

ADJUST BELT TENSION
If blade fails to turn when the bail is pulled, then:
1.
Locate small thumb wheel on top of the belt housing (Fig. 17).
2.
Turn the wheel clockwise
1 revolution to increase the tension
on the belt.
3.
Try pulling the bail and see if the blade turns. If not, repeat step
2 until the blade turns.
