Edger should be held at a comfortable position with the
rear handle about hip height.
The edger will edge along sidewalks, driveways, flower
beds, curbs, and similar areas.
Cut at a steady pace. If the blade begins to bog down,
you are edging too fast; slow your pace. Do not force the
blade into ground.
If the blade contacts the sidewalk edge, curb, etc., then
stop the edger, remove the battery, and check the blade
for damage. Do not continue to use a damaged blade.
Continued use of a damaged blade can result in tool
failure.
Best appearance is obtained when grass is dry. Avoid
edging in wet soil or wet grass areas or the blade guard
might clog and result in an uneven edge. If the blade guard
becomes clogged, stop the edger, remove the battery,
and remove debris from the blade guard.
WARNING:
Always hold the edger away from the body keeping
clearance between the body and the edger. Any contact
with the edger cutting head while operating can result in
serious personal injury.
ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT
See Figures 7 - 8.
Remove the battery pack.
Loosen the depth adjustment knob by turning it counter-
clockwise.
Move the wheel assembly up to increase blade depth or
down to decrease blade depth.
Tighten the depth adjustment knob by turning it clockwise.
Replace the battery pack.
NOTE: Adjust the blade depth from 1/2 in. to 1 in. deep
initially. Make a shallow cut to test the cutting depth. If the
cutting depth needs adjusting, this should be done progres-
sively until the desired depth is reached.
TO REMOVE BATTERY PACK
See Figure 4.
Depress the latch on the battery pack.
Remove the battery pack.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the bat-
tery pack and keep hands clear of the lock-out when
carrying or transporting the tool.
For complete charging instructions, see the operator’s manu-
als for your battery pack and charger.

CAUTION:
A coasting blade can cause injury while it continues to
