MC-E (Edger Attachment)
Operating Position
Before using the Multi-Cutter with Edger Attachment, check the following:
1. The unit should be on the operator’s right side.
2. The operator’s right hand should be holding the shaft grip, with his or her
fingers on the throttle trigger. The right arm should be slightly bent.
3. The left hand should be holding the loop handle with the fingers and
thumb fully enclosed around the grip. The left arm should be extended.
Reposition the loop handle up or down the shaft assembly if necessary
for a comfortable position.
4. The Edger weight should be evenly distributed between the arms.
5. Adjust the Edger to the correct cutting depth before you start the engine.
(Refer to Setting Depth of Cut on this next page) Make sure the blade
guard is adjusted to shield the operator from thrown debris.
6. Make sure the blade is rotating (at least half throttle) before inserting the blade into the cut. The Edger
performs best at full throttle.
7. Always release the throttle trigger and allow the engine to return to idle speed when not cutting.
8. Stop the engine when moving between work sites.
・
If the Edger blade becomes jammed, stop the engine immediately.
・
Make certain all moving parts have stopped and disconnect the spark plug before inspecting the equip-
ment for damage.
・
Never use a unit that has chipped, cracked or broken Edger blade or blade guard.
