Adjusting Depth of Cut
Using the Unit
Warning!
Do not operate your power tool if the
muffler is damaged, missing or modi-
fied. An improperly maintained muffler
will increase the risk of fire and hearing
loss. If your muffler was equipped with a
spark-arresting screen to reduce the
risk of fire, never operate your power
tool if the screen is missing or damaged.
Remember that the risk of forest fires is
greater in hot or dry weather.

produce sharp contoured borders
around lawns and flower beds. It will cut
almost all types of grass, weeds and soft
green plants.
off the engine.
Warning!
Loosen the wingnut (1)
counterclockwise.
Never repair damaged cutting attach-
ments by welding, straightening or
modifying the shape. This may cause
parts of the cutting attachment to come
off and result in serious or fatal injuries.
Adjust the wheel (2): Upwards to
increase the depth of cut (A) or
downwards to reduce the depth of
cut (A).
Preparations
Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws,
except the carburetor adjustment
screws, after each use.
If the soil is very dry, spray it with water
before you start work: this softens the
soil a little and also reduces the amount
of dust created. Slightly damp green
plants are easier to cut.
Do not clean your machine with a
pressure washer. The solid jet of water
may damage parts of the machine.
Clear away all obstacles and solid
objects from the work area.
Store the power tool in a dry and high or
locked location out of reach of children.

Plan the best route for edging.
Before storing for longer than a few
days, always empty the fuel tank. See
chapter "Storing the Machine" in the
instruction manual.
Always hold and operate your edger
on the right-hand side of your body.
