3.1 Pre-Operation Check
Prior to operating the Edger; always perform these basic checks:
1. Make sure the Edger is level. Secure the legs to the surface.
CAUTION! Always be sure the machine is level prior to operating.
Failure to do so can and will affect machine operation and wear life.
2. Make sure the outfeed table is level with the rest of the Edger. Place blocks under the table if
necessary.
3. Make sure the motor drive belt is tensioned properly.
WARNING! Do not for any reason adjust the motor drive belts with the
motor running. Doing so may result in serious injury.
4. Be sure the anti-kickback fingers are in proper working condition.
WARNING! Always ensure that there is a sharp point on the
anti-kickback fingers before each use of the Edger.
Be sure anti-kickback fingers are free from obstruction and are in a
downward position with lever released. Failure to do so may result in
serious injury.
