Assembly Connecting Stop Switch Wires 1. Install the plastic tube (packed with the drive shaft assembly) around the throttle cable and stop switch wires (Fig. 7). 2. Loosen the knob and remove the air cleaner cover to access the stop switch wires (Fig. 8). 3. Plug the stop switch wires into the matching connectors from the engine. 4. Reinstall the air cleaner cover and tighten the knob (Fig. 8).
Installing Shield 2. Install the edger blade, clamping washer and blade bolt (Fig. 12). Note: 3. Align the hole in the boss adapter with the hole in the gearcase (Fig. 12). 4. Insert the 3mm hex wrench into the holes in the boss adapter and gearcase to lock the splined shaft (Fig. 12). 5. Tighten the blade bolt to 100 in.-lbs. (11.3 NSM) (Fig. 12). 6. Remove the 3mm hex wrench from the boss adapter and gearcase (Fig. 12). POTENTIAL HAZARD • Foreign objects can be thrown by Edger.
1. Do not smoke near fuel. 2. Mix and pour fuel outdoors and where there are no sparks or flames. 3. Always shut off the engine before refueling. Never remove the Edger fuel tank cap while the engine is running or right after just stopping the engine. IMPORTANT: Do not use National Marine Manufacturer’s Association (NMMA) or BIA certified oils. This type of 2–cycle engine oil does not have the proper additives for air-cooled, 2–cycle engines and can cause engine damage.
Mixing Gasoline And Oil Fuel Mixture Chart IMPORTANT: The engine used on this Edger is of a 2–cycle design. The internal moving parts of the engine, i.e., crankshaft bearings, piston pin bearings and piston to cylinder wall contact surfaces, require oil mixed with the gasoline for lubrication. Failure to add oil to the gasoline or failure to mix oil with the gasoline at the appropriate ratio will cause major engine damage which will void your warranty.
Starting And Stopping B. Make sure the throttle trigger is set to the fast-idle start position (Fig. 15). Before Starting The Engine C. Pull the starter handle until the engine starts (Fig. 14). 1. Fill the fuel tank as instructed in the Before Operation section of this manual. 2. Rest the Edger on the ground. 3. Make sure the Edger blade is clear of any broken glass, nails, wire, rocks or other debris.
Operation POTENTIAL HAZARD • Engine must be running to make some carburetor adjustments. • When engine is running, Edger blade is rotating and other parts are moving. POTENTIAL HAZARD • Foreign objects can be thrown by Edger. WHAT CAN HAPPEN WHAT CAN HAPPEN • Contact with rotating Edger blade or other moving parts could cause serious personal injury or death. • Contact with thrown objects can cause personal injury.
6. Adjust the Edger to the correct cutting depth before you start the engine. (Refer to Setting Depth of Cut on page 11.) Make sure the shield is adjusted to shield the operator from thrown debris (Figs. 17 and 18). 7. Make sure the blade is rotating (at least half throttle) before inserting the blade into the cut. The Edger performs best at full throttle. 8. Always release the throttle trigger and allow the engine to return to idle speed when not cutting. 9.
Fuel Filter Maintenance Interval The fuel filter should be replaced after every 100 hours of operation. Spark Plug Maintenance 1. With the engine at ambient (room) temperature, loosen the knob and remove the air cleaner cover (Fig. 8). 2. Loosen the knob and lift off the cylinder cover (Fig. 8). 3. Twist the high tension lead boot on the spark plug back and forth a couple of times to loosen the boot, then pull the boot off of the spark plug.
2. Loosen the knob and lift off the cylinder cover (Fig. 8). 3. Clean all dirt and debris from the cooling fins and from around the cylinder base. 4. Reinstall the cylinder and air cleaner covers (Fig. 8). 4. Remove and clean the tail, gasket and spark arrester with a safety solvent and a stiff brush. If any part cannot be thoroughly cleaned, it must be replaced. 5. Reinstall the spark arrester, gasket and tail onto the muffler, then reinstall and tighten the two socket head screws (Fig. 23). 6.
