8. Operation (EX-HE only)

EX-HE OP1

WARNING

•Always wear eye protection such as safety goggles. Never lean over the rotating cutting head. Rocks or other debris could be thrown into eyes and face and cause serious personal injury.

•Keep the blade guard and the mad guard attached in place at all times when the unit is operated.

•Before starting a job, check the area and remove all obstacles and objects that could be thrown by the blade.

•Do not adjust the wheel height or try to remove anything entangled to the blade with the engine running.

1.Before starting the engine, adjust the wheel height for desired cutting depth (See page 21).

2.Before starting a job, plan your direction of travel so that you can always hold the edger on you right side and can walk on a hard surface as much as possible.

3.When starting to edge, run the engine at full throttle, and slowly have the blade cut into the edge groove.

NOTE

•Do not use the EX-HE to make a new groove into the ground. Such usage will not be covered by RedMax Warranty.
