Coupler Release Button Guide Recess ClockwiseCounterclockwise Knob Fig. 1 Knob Fig. 3 CAUTION: The add-ons with the coupler system are to be used in the primary hole only. Using the wrong hole could lead to personal injury or damage to the unit. The edger add-on should be installed with the release button in the primary hole. Check Flex Shaft Engagement Prior to Using 1. Start the unit. 2. Briefly engage and release the trigger. 3. Check that add-on is operating. 4. If the add-on is not operating, remove add-on and repeat steps for installing the add-on. 5. Recheck operation of add-on attachment. 8 HOLDING THE UNIT WITH EDGER ADD-ON Before operating the unit, stand in the operating position (Figs. 4 & 5). Check for the following: • The operator is wearing eye protection and proper clothing. • The right arm is slightly bent, and the hand is holding the shaft grip. • The left arm is straight, and the hand is holding the handle. • The unit is at waist level. • The edger wheel adjusted for proper cut depth and edger positioned as shown in Figs. 4 or 5. ADJUSTING EDGER CUTTING DEPTH 1. Loosen the adjustment knob above the wheel (Fig 6). 2. Slide the wheel to the desired position. • Raising the wheel increases the cutting depth. • Lowering the wheel decreases the cutting depth. 3. Tighten the adjustment knob securely. TIPS FOR BEST EDGING RESULTS • Keep the cutting attachment perpendicular to the ground. • Do not force the edger. Edge the first time at a lesser depth,(No more than 1/2” depth cut per pass), then do the area again with a deeper setting. • Walk the edger at a slow, even pace • Check the blade condition, as it wears it becomes smaller, reducing the cutting depth performance. Fig. 4 Replace with a new blade as required.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS EDGER BLADE REPLACEMENT WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, always wear gloves while handling, removing or installing the blade.

Locking Rod Fig. 8 Loosen Fig. 9 Locking Rod Blade Retainer Lock NutEdger Blade 1. Line up the hole in output shaft with the locking rod slot. Insert the locking rod through the slot into the output shaft hole (Fig. 7). 2. Hold the locking rod in place by grasping it next to the boom of the unit (Fig.8). 3. While holding the locking rod, loosen the nut on the blade by turning it clockwise with a 13 mm wrench (Fig. 9). Remove the nut, retaining washer and blade. Keep the nut and blade retainer for installation. 4. Install the new blade, blade retainer, and nut (Fig. 10). Insert the locking rod through the slot into the output shaft hole. Make sure that the blade stays flat and centered against the output shaft while tightening the lock nut counterclockwise (Fig. 11). 5. If you have a torque wrench, tighten the nut to 325-335 in.•lbs (37-38 N•m), while holding the locking rod in the slot. If you do not have a torque wrench, hold the locking rod in the slot. Rotate the nut counterclockwise with a 13 mm closed-ended or socket wrench, until the nut presses against the washer and the blade is snug. Make sure the blade assembly is installed correctly, then rotate the nut an additional 1/4-1/2 turn (Fig. 11). 6. Remove the locking rod. WARNING: Verify the blade is flat against the output shaft after the nut is tightened. If the blade is off-center, the unit will be damaged by vibration, and the blade may fly off, which can cause serious personal injury.
