almost all types of grass, weeds and soft
green plants.

Preparations
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.
Adjust wheel (2):
Upwards
to increase depth of cut (A).
Adjust correctly
Downwards
to reduce depth of cut (A).
The depth of cut varies, depending
on unevenness, your height and the
way you hold the edger.
:
Inspect the work area and clear
away any obstacles (stones, gravel,
glass, etc.) to reduce the risk of
injury from thrown objects.
:
Use the following procedure:
Adjust the wheel (2) so that the
cutting blade (3) just touches the
ground or breaks the surface of the
soil by no more than 0.2" / 5 mm (B)
in the normal working position.
:
Plan the best route for edging, i.e.
starting point, changes in direction,
etc. Always hold and operate your
edger on the right-hand side of the
body.
