OPERATING TIPS
NOTE:
The edger requires a lot of power and should not be operated simultaneouslywith other
tools or utilities on the same household circuit.
Set initial cut depth at 1” and set edge guide to the down posotion.
Before starting the edger line up the tool so the edger guide rests against the edge of the
paved surface. Both rear wheels should be on the paved surface when edging.
NOTE:
When there is heavy overgrowth of grass over the paved surface it may dragon the
guard. An initial cut may be require reducing the depth at cut.
To avoid kickback, lift the handle down so the blade is above the guard.
Turn switch ON and allow blade to spin without moving tool.
Slowly lift the handle to lower the blade. Find the edge of the paved surface and start
edging. Then move tool forward slowly along edge of paved surface, keeping the edge
guide pressed lightly against the pavement edge.
For the first edging of each season, it is best to move forward slowly because early in the
season grass is thickest. Subsequent edging will be completed more rapidly. If the tool slows
down, back it up an inch or two until the balde comes up to normal speed. During edging some
sparks may be generated from hitting stones. This is normal. Do not attempt to edge when the
grass or soil is wet or moist for electrical safety and to prevent clogging of the blade chamber.
If you must edge under conditions that causethe blade chamber to become clogged, release
trigger, wait for blade to come to complete stop, UNPLUG TOOL, open door and remove
clogged meterial with a stick. To continue to operate the tool in a clogged condition will
seriously overload the motor.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to unclog the blade chamber by dropping or tapping the tool on the
ground. This can damage the unit. Keep hands clear of the edge guide andblade when
cleaning as these wear to a very sharp point during edging.
Make sure that other people and pets are at lease
5
0' away from the
work area.

WARNING:
Before landscaping or trenching, inspect and ensure there are no exposed
or buried cables, pipes or other objects that may create a hazard or interfere with operating
