EDGING

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, KEEP THE GUARD BETWEEN THE OPERATOR AND THE TRIMMER HEAD.

Edging maintains an existing border 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 extends from the trimmer and clicks into place.

Approach the lawn with the trimmer turned so that the bottom of the trimmer head is pointed toward the side of the lawn and the edging guide is pointed toward the ground. Position the edge guide along the edge of the lawn. (Fig. 17).

FIG. 17

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).

FIG. 18

For extended periods of edging, it is acceptable to rotate the front handle (Fig. 19). This may provide a more comfortable grip.
