Operate the edger under good visibility
and daylight conditions only. Work
carefully.
Always hold the edger firmly with both
hands. Wrap your fingers tightly around
the handles, keeping the handles
cradled between your thumb and
forefinger. Keep your hands in this
position to have your edger under
control at all times.
Make sure your edger handles and grip
are in good condition and free of
moisture, pitch, oil or grease.
!
Warning!
Never attempt to operate any edger with
one hand. Loss of control of the edger
resulting in serious or fatal injury may
result.
Special care must be taken in slippery
conditions (wet ground, snow) and in
difficult, over-grown terrain. Watch for
hidden obstacles such as tree stumps,
roots and ditches to avoid stumbling.
Stay alert for uneven side walks, holes in
terrain or other similiar conditions when
using your edger. Always push slowly
over rough ground. Do not abuse your
edger.
!
Warning!
Before cutting, inspect
and clear the area of
stones, glass, pieces of
metal, trash or other solid
objects. The cutting
attachment could throw
objects of this kind and cause personal
injury.
Do not use edger on gravel surfaces.
!
Warning!
Never divert discharge of material
toward bystanders nor allow anyone
near the area of operation. Use care in
directing discharge to avoid glass
enclosures, automobiles, and the like.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk
of injury from
thrown objects and
blade contact,
never operate an
edger without properly mounted
deflector and skirt. Do not overreach.
Keep proper footing and balance at all
times.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury
from blade contact, keep
hands and feet away from
cutting area.
!
Warning!
This edger is normally to be used at
ground level with the cutting attachment
perpendicular to the ground. Use of an
edger above ground level or with the
cutting attachment parallel to the ground
may increase the risk of injury, since the
cutting attachment is more fully exposed
and the edger may be more difficult to
control. Never use your edger as a
hedge trimmer.
