Adjust correctly
The depth of cut depends on the
unevenness of the ground, your height
and the way you hold the edger. Use the
following procedure:
N
Adjust the depth wheel (2) so that
the blade (3) just touches the
ground or breaks the surface of the
soil by no more than 5 mm (B)
N
Tighten down the wingnut
clockwise.
N
Standing in the normal working
position, check the depth of cut
again and correct it if necessary.
WARNING
Do not adjust the deflector.
The deflector has been set at the factory
so that the arrow on the deflector and
the open side point away from the
operator. This ensures that cuttings and
other debris are directed away from the
power tool and operator.
