4. Adjust the blade's depth of cut to produce a fine cut between
sidewalk and grass using a minimum blade depth, usually with
about 13 mm (1/2 in.) of the blade into the ground.
5. Before edging, plan your direction of travel so that the unit will
always be positioned on your right side and so that you walk on a
hard surface whenever possible.
6. Hold edger as shown.
WARNING DANGER
Before edging, be sure to read and understand the entire Operator's
Manual to avoid the chance of serious injury.
7. When starting to edge, run the engine at full throttle, and lower the
blade gently into the ground, being careful not to hit the concrete
with the blade.
8. Don't force the blade. Only move forward as the blade will allow.
WARNING DANGER
The complete unit, specifically the drive shaft assembly and muffler
exhaust area may become very hot during use. Avoid contact
during and immediately after operation, otherwise serious personal
injury may result.
MAINTENANCE
Your ECHO edger is designed to provide many hours of trouble free service. Regular scheduled maintenance will help
your edger achieve that goal. If you are unsure or are not equipped with the necessary tools, you may want to take your
unit to an ECHO Service Dealer for maintenance. To help you decide whether you want to DO-IT-YOURSELF or have the
ECHO Dealer do it, each maintenance task has been graded.

Level 2 = Moderate difficulty. Some specialized tools may be required.

the unit be returned to your ECHO dealer for servicing.
