The angle of the edger blade can be adjusted by placing 
the bevel adjustment in one of three positions for edging. 
See Fig. 5–3.

In order to achieve a bevelled edge, set the bevel 
adjustment lever (refer to Fig. 5–3) in the first (left hand) 
or third (right hand) notch to place the edger blade in 
position for beveling (See fig. 5–4).

The right, rear wheel of the edger can be lowered into one 
of five positions to ease the task of edging along a curb. 
To adjust the height of curb wheel, proceed as follows:
1.  Lower the right, rear wheel by moving the curb height 

adjustment lever slightly to the left. See Fig. 5–2.

2.  Pivot the right, rear wheel into an applicable position 

in relation to the height of the curb to be edged along. 

See Fig. 5–2

3.  Release the curb height adjustment lever to lock the 

wheel in position. See Fig. 5–2.

Trenching (Optional) 

You can utilize the edger’s optional trenching feature in 
order to create a wider cutting path for such things as 
laying wire for landscape lighting.

1.  Use two wrenches (one wrench to prevent hex bolt 

head from spinning and the other to unthread the 
flange nut) to remove flange nut that secures edger 
blade, leaving the edger blade in place. See Fig. 9. 

5.  Install the Tri-star edger blade and the flat washer. 

See Fig. 10.

6.  Secure with the flange nut removed earlier. 
IMPORTANT:  Use a torque wrench to tighten the flange 
nut to between 37 foot-lbs. and 50 foot-lbs.
IMPORTANT:  Make certain that drive belt is seated 
correctly on blade spindle and that it is riding smoothly 
on spindle sheaves and is not pinched between them. 
Repeat first three steps if belt is pinched.
