Operation
The cordless grass t edger is designed to cut grass
and weeds under bushes, and on slopes and edges that
cannot be reached with the lawn mower. The t edger
must be used outdoors only, at an ambient temperature
between 32ºF (0ºC) and 113ºF (45ºC).

WARNING!
Remove stones, small sticks and other
objects from the cutting area. The SharperBlade

rotate for a few seconds after the t edger is switched
off. Let the motor come to a complete stop before switching
the t edger back on. Do not rapidly switch the trimmer
+ edger off and on.
