4.  Adjust the blade's depth of cut to produce a fine cut between side-

walk 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 al-

ways be positioned on your right side and so that you walk on a hard 

surface whenever possible.

6.  Hold edger as shown.

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.

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.

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.

Never adjust blade height with engine running, otherwise serious 

personal injury may result.

Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries.  Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from all 

openings.  Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts have come to a complete 

stop before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit. Allow unit to cool before performing service. 

Wear gloves to protect hands from sharp edges and hot surfaces.
