TRANSMISSION GEARS
LUBRICATION
The transmission gears in the gear case
need be lubricated periodically with gear
grease. Check the gear case grease level
about every 50 hours of operation by
removing the sealing screw on the side of
the case.
If no grease can be seen on the sides of
the gear, follow the steps below to fill with gear grease up to 3/4 capacity.
Do not completely fill the transmission gear case.
1. Position the edger upright so that the sealing screw is facing upwards (Fig. 17).
2. Use the multi-function wrench provided to loosen and remove the sealing screw.
3. Use a grease syringe (not included) to inject some grease into the screw hole; do
not exceed 3/4 capacity.
4. Tighten the sealing screw after injection.
STORING THE UNIT
◾
Remove the battery pack from the edger

If the edger attachment is removed from the power head and stored separately:
Fit the end cap on the attachment shaft to avoid dirt getting into the coupler.
◾
