The Border-Edger Kit is a useful tool for making clean cuts in
the lawn along the borders of gardens, flower beds, walkways,
and driveways for a well manicured look. To install the Border-
Edger Kit, do the following:
1. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug.
2. Remove the cotter pins from both sides of the tine shaft.
3. Remove the cultivating tines from the shaft, remembering
which direction they are facing.
4. Put the tines in a safe place and save the (2) cotter pins, they
will be used on the Border-Edger Kit.
5. Slide the Border-Edger attachment on either side of the
tine shaft. Make sure that the hub collar of the border edger
tine faces outward, away from the transmission of the mini-
cultivator.
6. Put (1) cotter pin, flat side facing edger attachment, through
the shaft hole that is further down the shaft from the hole
where the cultivating tines were placed.
7. Slide the wheel on the opposite tine shaft.
8. Insert the remaining cotter pin, flat side facing wheel, through
the hole next to the wheel at the end of the tine shaft.
9. Re-connect spark plug wire.
10. Before using the Border-Edger Kit, remove the drag stake from
the unit.
11. Set the mini-cultivator wheels to their highest (top) position.
