OPERATING THE EDGER 

See Figure 3. 
Hold the edger with the right hand on the rear handle and the left hand on the front handle. The edger 
should be held on the right side of the body. Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation. The 
edger should be held at a comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height. 

NOTE:

 When the attachment is being used on a trimmer with a gasoline engine, always operate at full 

throttle. Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result in oil dripping from the muffler. 
 

CUTTING TIPS 

See Figure 3. 
1.

 

The edger will edge along sidewalks, driveways, flower beds, curbs, and similar areas. 

2.

 

Use the arrow guide on the blade guard to align the blade with the edging surface. 

3.

 

Cut at steady pace. If the blade begins to bog down, you are edging too fast; slow your pace. Do not 
force the blade into ground. 

4.

 

Light contact of the blade against the sidewalk edge, curb, etc. is acceptable and will not damage the 
edger. 

5.

 

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 
engine,  remove  the  spark  plug  wire  or  disconnect  from  the  power  supply,  and  remove  debris  from 
the blade guard. 

 

TO ADJUST THE BLADE DEPTH 

See Figures 4 and 5. 
Depth of the cut is determined by the distance from the bottom of the wheel to the tip of blade. 
1.

 

Stop the engine and remove the spark plug wire or disconnect from the power source. 

2.

 

Loosen the adjusting knob and move the wheel arm up to increase the depth and down to decrease 
the depth. 

3.

 

After adjustment is complete, tighten the adjusting knob securely. 

4.

 

Replace the spark plug wire or connect to the power supply and start the unit. 

NOTE:

 Adjust the blade depth from 1/2 in. to 1 in. (1.2 to 2.5 cm) deep initially. Make a shallow cut to 

test  the  cutting  depth.  If  the  cutting  depth  needs  adjusting,  this  should  be  done  progressively  until  the 
desired is reached.     
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

WARNING

Wear safety glasses or goggles when operating this tool. Failure to do so could result in possible serious injury.
