BLADE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 7.
The blade speed can be adjusted by sliding the button back
and forth.
ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT
See Figure 8.
There are four depth positions from 1/2 in. to 2 in.

Remove the battery pack.

Rotate the paddle to raise or lower the front edger wheel
to adjust the depth of cut.

Rotate the paddle to fully locked position when the desired
height is set.
NOTE: Adjust the blade depth from 1/2 in. to 1 in. deep
initially. Make a shallow cut to test the cutting depth. If the
cutting depth needs adjusting, this should be done progres-
sively until the desired depth is reached.
DROP WHEEL ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 9.
This feature enables edging on uneven surfaces such as
along curbs.
 Remove the battery pack.

Rotate the paddle to raise or lower the rear wheel to adjust
the height of an uneven surface such as a curb.
 Rotate the paddle to fully locked position when the desired
height is set.
EDGER GUIDE
See Figure 10.
Protect curbing and other surfaces from being damaged by
the edger's blade.

Remove the battery pack.

Raise or lower the lever to adjust the protective shield.

Lock into place by sliding the lever over the tab to secure.

Use the sight on the blade guide to align the blade with
the area you wish to edge.
OPERATING THE EDGER
See Figure 6.

Hold the edger with both hands on the handle assembly.

Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.

Edger should be held at a comfortable position with the
handle assembly about hip height.

Use the sight on the blade guide to align the blade with
the area you wish to edge.

The edger will edge along sidewalks, driveways, flower
beds, curbs, and similar areas.

Cut at a steady pace. If the blade begins to bog down,
you are edging too fast; slow your pace. Do not force the
blade into ground.

Light contact of the blade against the sidewalk edge,
curb, etc., is acceptable and will not damage the edger.

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 edger,
remove the battery, and remove debris from the blade
guard. Use the guard sweep to clear debris.
WARNING:
Always hold the edger away from the body keeping
clearance between the body and the edger. Any contact
with the edger cutting head while operating can result in
serious personal injury.
