NOTE: For detailed information on all engine controls, refer to the seperate Engine Operator’s Manual.
Starter Rope / Recoil StarterThe starter rope/recoil starter is used to start the engine.
PrimerLocated on the upper handle, the blade control must be depressed against the upper handle in order to operate the edger. Releasing the blade control stops the engine and the edger blade.
Blade Depth Control LeverThe blade depth control lever is located on the right side of the upper handle. It is used to control the depth of the cut. The further forward the blade depth control lever is moved, the deeper into the soil the edger blade will cut.
The primer is used to pump gas into the carburetor and aid in starting the engine. Use it to start a cold engine, but do not use it to restart a warm engine after a short shutdown.
Curb Height Adjustment LeverThe curb height adjustment lever is found on the rear portion of the edger. When placed in an applicable notch, it aids in stabilizing the edger while edging grass along a curb.
The bevel adjustment lever is located on the front, left portion of the edger, behind the edger blade. It is used to vary the angle of the edger blade between one of three positions for edging/ trenching or beveled edging.
