Operating Techniques
1.  Before edging, water the area to soften the ground to make edging 
easier.
2  Before edging, check the area and remove all obstacles and objects 
that could be thrown.
3.  Plan to edge regularly to make it easier to keep a neat edge and to 
avoid having to make more than one pass.
NOTE
Blade depth may have to be adjusted due to differences in height 
between the hard surface and the top of the grass.
    WARNING   
Never adjust blade height with engine running, otherwise  serious 
personal injury may result.

walk and grass using a minimum blade depth, usually with about 13 
mm (1/2 in.) of the blade into the ground.
5.  Before edging, plan your direction of travel so that the unit will al-
ways be positioned on your right side and so that you walk on a hard 
surface whenever possible.
