opERATIoN
 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.
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.

depth needs adjusting, this should be done progressively
until the desired depth is reached.
