Edging (Fig. A, L)
Optimum cutting results are achieved on edges deeper
than 2 inches (50 mm). Do not use this trimmer to
create trenches.
1. Using the edging wheel

, guide the trimmer as shown
in Figure L.
2. Position the edging wheel on the edge of the sidewalk
or abrasive surface so the cutting line is over the grass or
dirt area to be edged.
nOTE:
The line feed system may not operate correctly if
wheeled edge guide is not used.

edge with the cutting line positioned over the sidewalk or
abrasive surface.
3. To make a closer cut, slightly tilt the trimmer.
4. Return to the trimming postion by loosening the lock
collar and rotating the lower housing back 180°. The
