• If the Edger blade becomes jammed, stop the
engine immediately.
• Make certain all moving parts have stopped and
disconnect the spark plug before inspecting the
equipment for damage.
• Never use a Edger that has chipped, cracked or
broken Edger blade or blade shield.
Setting Depth of Cut
IMPORTANT: Set the depth of cut before you
start the engine.
1.
Loosen the knob holding the shield to the plate.
2.
Rotate the shield as necessary to set the depth of
cut. Note that:
• Rotating the shield to raise the wheel increases
the depth of cut.
• Rotating the shield to lower the wheel
decreases the depth of cut.
3.
Make sure the shield is positioned to protect the
operator from thrown debris, then tighten the
knob.
Maintenance
Maintenance, replacement or repair of emission
control devices and systems may be performed by
any repair establishment or individual; however,
warranty repairs must be performed by a dealer or
service center authorized by Maruyama
Manufacturing Company, Inc. The use of parts that
are not equivalent in performance and durability to
authorized parts may impair the effectiveness of the
emission control system and may have a bearing on
the outcome of a warranty claim.
Maintenance on today's low-emission engines is
even more critical for longest life and best perfor-
mance. particularly critical are air and fuel filters,
spark plug heat range, cooling air intake area and
proper gaps of coil and plug.
