TIPS FOR BEST EDGING RESULTS

•Keep the cutting attachment perpendicular to the ground.

•Do not force the edger. Edge the first time at a lower depth, then do the area again with a deeper setting.

•Walk the edger at a slow, even pace

•Check the blade condition, as it wears it becomes smaller, reducing the cutting depth performance. Replace with a new blade as required.
