Do not force the edger. It will do the job better and with less likelihood of a risk of

injury at rate for which it was designed.  

Use the right appliance. Do not use edger for any job except that for which it is intended.

 

 

Maintain the edger with care. Keep the sharp cutting edge clean for best

performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow the instruction for lubricating

and changing accessories. Inspect the edger cord periodically and, if damaged,

have it repaired by an authorized service technician. Inspect the extension cords

periodically and replace it if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil

and grease.

 

 

Check damaged parts. Check the alignment and the binding of moving parts, the

overall condition of the tool. A defective tool or one with a guard or other part that is

damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center.

 

 

CUse the appropriate extension cord. Make sureyour extension cord is in good condition.

When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current

your prod-uct will draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended

for an extension cord 50’ (15 m) or less in length. If in doubt, use the next heavier

gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord

will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

 

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

 

Be sure all guards are properly and securely attached.  Never use a tool without its

other purpose.

 

Do not use the edger on or near graveled surfaces.

 

If the edger strikes any type of foreign object: a) Stop the edger and disconnect from the 

power supply. b) Inspect for damage to the edger blade and guard. c) Correct damage before 

using the edger attachment. Failure to do so can cause serious injury.

 

Make yourself familiar with the area you are edging. Be aware of uneven sidewalks and 

holes in the terrain as well as other similar hazardous conditions (example: wire or wire 

rope which can break off and become a dangerous projectile). Always push the edger 

attachment slowly over rough ground.

 

Never direct discharge of material toward bystanders or allow anyone near the area of 

operation. Use care in directing discharge to avoid glass enclosures, automobiles, and the 

like.

 

Always stop the motor and disconnect from power supply before attempting to remove 

any obstruction caught or jammed in the blade, installing attachment, or making any 

adjustments.
