Edging
IMPORTANT: KEEP THE GUARD BETWEEN THE OPERATOR AND THE TRIMMER HEAD.
In tight spaces, such as against a fence or other barrier, it is acceptable to reverse grip on the rear handle and hold the trimmer/edger in a more vertical position (Fig. 18).
Edging maintains an existing border | Fig. 18 | ||
between a lawn and another object such | |||
as a sidewalk, pavement, or flower bed. |
| ||
The trimmer/edger is not designed for |
| ||
creating a new hard edge, but is useful |
| ||
for keeping an existing edge clean. |
| ||
Keep hands away from the throttle |
| ||
trigger, then move the edging guard so |
| ||
that it protrudes from the trimmer and |
| ||
clicks into place (Fig. 16). |

| ||
lawn and the edging guide is pointed | Fig. 19 | ||
toward the ground. Position the edge |
