TRANSPORTING

BEFORE LOADING

If the engine has been running, allow it to cool
for at least 15 minutes before loading the stick
edger on the transport vehicle. A hot engine
and exhaust system can burn you and can
ignite some materials.

Always turn the ignition switch to the OFF (0)
position. Make sure the fuel cap is
securely tightened.

LOADING

The stick edger may be secured by suitable
clamps, hangers or straps. Secure the stick
edger by at least two points along the metal
section of the drive shaft housing. Avoid
securing the stick edger by the engine, gear
case/debris shield or throttle lever area. The
stick edger should be secured in a horizontal
position, with the engine turned up.

Don't hang the stick edger by the gear case or
debris shield, or they may be damaged.
