pressure washer. The solid jet of water
may damage parts of the machine.
Store the power tool in a dry and high or
locked location out of reach of children.
Before storing for longer than a few
days, always empty the fuel tank. See
chapter "Storing the Machine" in the

Your power edger is designed to
produce sharp contoured borders
around lawns and flower beds. It will cut
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.
N Plan the best route for edging.
Always hold and operate your edger
on the right-hand side of your body.
Adjusting Depth of Cut
N To reduce the risk of injury, shut
off the engine.
N Loosen the wingnut (1)
counterclockwise.
N Adjust the wheel (2): Upwards to
increase the depth of cut (A) or
downwards to reduce the depth of
cut (A).
Warning!
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.
Using the Unit
Clear away all obstacles and solid
objects from the work area.
