Adjusting the depth of cut
:
Shut off the engine and wait for the
cutting blade to come to a complete
standstill.
:
Loosen wingnut (
1
)
counterclockwise
:
Adjust wheel (
2
):
Upwards
to increase depth of cut (
A
).
Downwards
to reduce depth of cut (
A
).
Adjust correctly
The depth of cut varies, depending
on unevenness of the ground, your
height and the way you hold the
edger.
:
Use the following procedure:
Adjust the wheel (
2
) so that the
cutting blade (
3
) just touches the
ground or breaks the surface of the
soil by no more than 0,2“ (5 mm) (
B
)
in the normal working position.
Do not adjust the deflector!
The deflector has been set by the
manufacturer so that the arrow on the
deflector and the open side point away
from the operator. This ensures that
cuttings and other debris will be directed
away from the machine and operator.
