3. To avoid kickback of edger, tilt the handle down so the
blade is above the ground.
4. Turn switch ON and allow blade to spin without
moving tool.
5. Slowly lift the handle to lower the blade, finding the
edge of the paved surface and start edging. Then
move tool forward slowly along edge of paved surface,
keeping the edge guide pressed lightly against the
pavement edge.
-
For the first edging each season, it is best to move
forward slowly because grass is thickest then.
Subsequent edging will be completed more rapidly.
If the tool slows down, back it up an inch or two
until the blade comes up to normal speed. During
edging some sparks may be generated from hitting
stones. This is normal. Do not attempt to edge when
the grass or soil is wet or moist—for electrical safety
and to prevent clogging of the blade chamber. If
you must edge under conditions that cause the
blade chamber to become clogged, release trigger,
wait for blade to come to complete stop. Unplug
tool, open door and remove clogged material with
a stick. To continue to operate the tool in a clogged
condition will seriously overload the motor.
CAUTION:
blade chamber by dropping or tapping the tool on the
ground. This can damage the unit. Keep hands clear of
edge guide and blade when cleaning as these wear to
a very sharp point during edging.

If tool slows, pull back slightly and wait until blade
comes up to normal speed.
