Setup

Follow these steps to assemble your ciciglow Manual Lawn Edger:

1. Install the Edging Head: Align the holes on the edging head with the first handle section. Insert the provided screws and secure them with the nuts using the wrenches.
2. Connect Handle Sections: Rotate and tighten the connecting rods of the handle sections together. Ensure each section is firmly screwed into the next to prevent loosening during use.
3. Adjust Length: The handle consists of multiple sections, allowing you to adjust the overall length to a comfortable height for operation.

Operating Instructions

The ciciglow Manual Lawn Edger is designed for straightforward operation:

1. Position the Edger: Place the edger's wheel on the hard surface (sidewalk, driveway, patio) and the blades against the grass edge you wish to trim.
2. Apply Downward Pressure: Gently push the edger forward, applying slight downward pressure. The serrated blades will rotate and cut the overgrown grass.
3. Maintain a Steady Pace: Move along the edge at a consistent speed to achieve a uniform cut. For very thick or overgrown areas, a second pass may be beneficial.
4. Clear Debris: After edging, use a broom or leaf blower to clear any cut grass from the hard surface.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and effectiveness of your edger:

• Cleaning: After each use, remove any grass or debris that may have accumulated between the blades and the wheel. This prevents clogging and maintains cutting efficiency.
• Blade Tension Adjustment: If the blades feel too tight (causing rotation resistance) or too loose (resulting in poor cutting), adjust the tension using the included wrenches. Hold the bolt head with one wrench and turn the nut clockwise to reduce the gap (tighten) or counter-clockwise to increase the gap (loosen).
• Storage: For compact storage, the handle can be disassembled into its sections. Store the edger in a dry place to prevent rust.

Troubleshooting

• Issue: Grass gets stuck between the blades and wheel.
  Solution: Regularly clean the blades and wheel during and after use to prevent buildup.
• Issue: Handle sections become loose during operation.
  Solution: Ensure all handle sections are tightly screwed together before starting. Re-tighten if necessary.
• Issue: Edger is difficult to push or cuts poorly.
  Solution: Check blade tension. If blades are too tight, they may cause resistance; if too loose, they may not cut effectively. Adjust tension as described in the Maintenance section.
