Assembling the Edger Attachment

Pull the protective caps off of the ends of the shaft and keep them in a safe place for later use.

1. Connecting drive tube to gearbox (Fig.1)
   1. Loosen the 2 clamping screws (B1+B2) on the gearbox (B4) of the Edger Attachment Do not remove!
   2.Insert curved end of drive tube (B) in the gearbox (B4), turn the gearbox (B4) back and forth as necessary.
   3. Push the shaft in as far as it will go.
   4. Align the gearbox on the shaft so that the screw (B2) is aligned with the hole (B3) in the shaft.
   5.Tighten the clamping screws (B1+B2) firmly.
   2. Assemble the edger attachment tube to the engine tool (Fig.2)
   Aligh the pin (C) with the hole of the shaft connector hole (E), inset the shaft (A) to the shaft connector until the pin get into the hole(E) and screw the knob (D) tightly.
   2 Mounting the Cutting Blade / Edger Attachment

• Insert the Allen key (D1) as far as possible into the bore (C7), push lightly and rotate back and forth a little together with the inner flange (C1) until the shaft is blocked.
• Fit Spark plug wrench (10) onto nut (C5).
• Turn nut (C5) clockwise (left-hand thread) and remove it.
• Remove the outer flange (C3) and flange cover (C4).
• Position the cutting blade (C2) on the thrust plate (C6) at the inner flange (C1).
• Warning! The collar (arrow) must engage the hole in the cutting blade.
• Fit the outer flange (C3) and flange cover (C4) on the shaft and block the shaft.
•  Screw nut (C5) anti-clockwise onto shaft and tighten.

Working with Edger Attachment

An arrow on the deflector shows the correct direction of rotation of the cutting blade The arrow on the deflector must always face away from you, so that cuttings and other debris will be diverted away from the machine and your position.
Adjust carrying harness and grip to suit your size before starting work. The machine should be properly balanced as specified in your instruction manual for proper control and less fatigue in operation. To be better prepared in case of an emergency, practise
releasing the unit from the harness as quickly as possible.

Adjust the depth of cut (Fig.3)

•  Shut off the engine – Risk of accident!
• Loosen the wingnut (E1) anti-clockwise
• Adjust wheel (E2):
  upwards – depth of cut (A) increases
  downwards – depth of cut (A) decreases

The depth of cutis influenced by uneven ground as well as height and working position of the operator. For this reason,

• adjust the wheel (E2) so that the blade barely touches the ground when the machine is held in a normal working posture or penetrates the ground at most to a depth (B) of 5mm.
• Tighten wingnut (E1) clockwise
• Standing in the normal working position, check the depth of cut again – correct it if necessary

ATTENTION: when working on flat ground, adjust the alignment guide board(E3) to be short, and when working on road side with gap, adjust the alignment guide board (E3) to be longer and finable for the road gap(Fig.4).
Warning! Do not adjust the deflector.
The deflector has been set by the manufacturer so that the arrow on the deflector and the open side point away from the operator. This ensures that cuttings and other debris will be directed away from the machine and operator.

Edging

• Start the engine
• Start the cut at least half throttle and continue cutting at full throttle
• Hold and guide the unit so that the blade is vertical
• Cut steadily so that the engine speed does not decline to any major extent – do not apply force
• Cut paranormal walking pace
• Do not push the blade into the ground
• Always walk forwards when cutting, do not pull the unit towards you
• Cut ata steady pace – this avoids having to make several passes
• Use the gunning sight (1) for the cutting blade to align the blade to the edge

Replacing the cutting blade / Edger Attachment

Do not attempt to straighten or weld a bent or cracked blade – it may break – it must be replaced
Replace the blade (1) if its length (A) is no longer sufficient to maintain the necessary ground clearance (B) and obtain the required depth of cut (C)
ATTENTION: when replacing parts or doing maintenance, make sure switching off the engine until the cutting parts stop rotary.
