•
Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.
•
Edger should be held at a comfortable position with the
rear handle about hip height.
•
The edger will edge along sidewalks, driveways, flower
beds, curbs, and similar areas.
•
Cut at a steady pace. If the blade begins to bog down, you
are edging too fast; slow your pace. Do not force the
blade into ground.
•
Light contact of the blade against the sidewalk edge,
curb, etc., is acceptable and will not damage the edger.
•
Best appearance is obtained when grass is dry. Avoid
edging in wet soil or wet grass areas or the blade guard
might clog and result in an uneven edge. If the blade
guard becomes clogged, stop the edger, remove the
battery, and remove debris from the blade guard.
