Operating Your Edger/Trimmer

Correct Engine Operation

CAUTION : Always disengage edger/trimmer blade and shut engine off when leaving the edger/trim-
mer unattended, even for a moment. Don’t allow children or un authorized persons to operate this
machine.

Adjusting Cutterhead Angle

Before starting the engine you must adjust the cutterhead angle. The cutterhead angling lever enables the
operator to position the blade horizontally for trimming or edging in various positions. The lever is located on the
left hand side of the frame. (Figure 1).

Clutch And Depth Lever Settings

The clutch and depth lever is used to engage and disengage the drive belt which operates the blade. It is also
used to regulate the depth of edging and height of trimming.
