8. Operation (EX-HE only)
WARNING
• Always wear eye protection such as safety
goggles. Never lean over the rotating cutting
head. Rocks or other debris could be thrown into
eyes and face and cause serious personal injury.
• Keep the blade guard and the mad guard
attached in place at all times when the unit is
operated.
• Before starting a job, check the area and remove
all obstacles and objects that could be thrown by
the blade.
• Do not adjust the wheel height or try to remove
anything entangled to the blade with the engine
running.
1. Before starting the engine, adjust the wheel height
for desired cutting depth (See page 36).
2. Before starting a job, plan your direction of travel so
that you can always hold the edger on you right side
and can walk on a hard surface as much as
possible.
3. When starting to edge, run the engine at full throttle,
and slowly have the blade cut into the edge groove.
(1) Direction of rotation
NOTE
• Before edging, make sure the area is soft enough so
the blade does not bog down.
• Do not move the edger into the work so fast that the
engine or blade bogs down.
