UELING
The Xtra Edger unit uses an oil-gasoline mixture
for fuel
(see the chapter on “Fuel,” page 8).
Do not operate an Xtra Edger when fatigued.
Be alert - if you get tired while operating the
machine, take a break. Tiredness may result in
loss of control. Working with any power tool
can be strenuous. If you have any condition that
might be aggravated by strenuous work, check
with your doctor before operating the machine.
The Xtra Edger is equipped with vibration-
reducing hand grips and main handle anti-
vibration mountings. These are designed to
reduce the transmission of engine vibrations to
the operator’s hands. Replace hand grips and
mountings when worn or damaged.
The rubber handles do not guarantee that you
will not sustain whitefinger disease or carpal
tunnel syndrome. Therefore, continual and
regular users should monitor closely the
condition of their hands and fingers. If any
of the above symptoms appear, seek medical
advice immediately.
