Craftsman 536.7722 manual To USE the Depth Control Lever, Before Starting Engine

TO USE THE DEPTH CONTROL LEVER

•Position your Edger in desired edging lo- cation before operating.

•Start the engine and move the depth control lever back to lower the cutting blade.

•Select the edging depth you need. There are 3 selections up to approxi-

mately 2 inches deep.

IMPORTANT: If very deep edging is required, we recommend that a shallow cut be made first, then cut at greater depths until the desired depth is ob- tained.

/_ WARNING: Keep away from the rotat- ing blade. The blade can cause injury.

TO USE THE INDEX LEVER (BEVELING OPERATION)

•Stop engine and disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug.

INDEX LEVER IN THE NOTCH MARKED BEVEL CUT

•Pull the index lever out of the edging

notch as shown above and position it in the notch marked bevel cut.

•Reconnect the spark plug wire and

start the engine. Move the depth control lever to the desired beveling

depth.

_ CAUTION: Never leave the Edger unattended while the engine is running. Prior to adjusting the indexing blade posi- tion, always raise the cutting blade and stop the engine.

WARNING: Keep away from the rotating blade. The blade can cause injury.

TO USE THE BEVEL CUT FEATURE

Bevel edging reduces the need to edge as often creating a type of trench along your

sidewalk, driveway and etc. Move the in- dex lever to the bevel cut position and se- cure index lever in the slot. Prior to starting the engine, line the Edger up as ff you were going to bevel cut and move the depth con- trol lever down to test the blade location. Return the depth control lever to the for- ward slot of the adjustment bracket to raise the blade. Start the engine and move the depth control lever to the desired depth of cut.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

PRE-USE CHECK OF CONTROLS

All controls should be checked for proper function before servicing or starting the

engine.

•Move the depth control lever into all

three positions in the selector plate. Make sure the depth control lever snaps

into all three holes as shown in figure on page 6.

•Return the depth control lever to the forward hole in the selector plate.

FILL/ADD OIL:

This Edger was shipped with a 20 ounce container of SAE30 motor oil. This oil must

be added to the engine before operating. Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick and fill the crankcase to FULL line on dipstick. Your

engine may not require the entire 20 ounces of oil. DO NOT OVERFILL.

NOTE: Engine may already contain some residual oil.

Tighten the fill cap/dipstick securely each

time you check the oil level.

OIL RECOMMENDATIONS

Only use high quality detergent oil rated with API service classification SG. Select

the oil'sSAE viscosity grade according to

your expected operating temperature:

<<__Colder(<*W30 --__ 3--_2°F-_A'LL'35>>Warmer>>I

NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30, etc.) improve starting in cold we_tther, these multi-viscosity oils will result in increased oil consumption when used above 32°F. Check your engine oil level

more frequently to avoid possible engine damage from running low on oil.
