DANGER!
! WARNING
Always allow engine to cool
before refueling. Accidental spillage
of gasoline over a hot engine could cause fire or explosion to
occur.
FUEL MIX – 2 STROKE ENGINES
USE AN OIL & GASOLINE MIXTURE.
Only use 50:1 specialised 2-stroke
oils from lawn and garden equipment shops. Do not use
outboard engine oil. Do not use Ethanol based gasoline.
REMEMBER...
•
Always mix two-cycle oil with clean regular or premium
unleaded gasoline before fuelling your engine. Never, ever
run your 2-stroke engine on gasoline alone. This will ruin your
engine and void all warranties.
•
Always use a clean gas can and always use unleaded gas.
•
Never try to mix the oil and gasoline in the engine fuel tank.
•
Always mix oil and petrol in the proper proportions: 80ml of
50:1 two-cycle engine oil to 4 litres of unleaded petrol.
•
Old two-cycle fuel separates and ages. Do not mix more than
you will use in a month. Using old fuel may cause difficult
starting or engine damage. Shake fuel container to thoroughly
mix fuel before each use. Do not attempt to run your engine
on gasoline only, this will cause engine failure and void
engine warranty.
! WARNING
Fill or add fuel to the tank only when
the edger is in a horizontal position
as shown (Fig. 10). Allow engine to cool down for at least
5 minutes before adding fuel. Use a fuel funnel (not supplied) to
prevent spills.

STARTING & STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
EDGING INSTRUCTIONS
1. The Atom Edger is very easy
and simple to use. You will
soon become an expert after a
few edgings.
2. Thoroughly inspect the area
where the edger is to be
used and remove all stones,
sticks, wires and other
foreign objects.
3. Adjust blade height (Fig.15)
and with new blade, try No.2
position.
4. Start engine.
5. Use both arms extended
downwards, as in Fig. 16,
hold both handle grips firmly.
Accelerate engine by pushing
down safety interlock with
thumb and pulling trigger
(Fig. 11). Do not overload
motor, allow it to run freely.
To stop blades rotating,
release trigger.
6. If blade is not deep enough,
or if digging too deep,
adjust blade height, to suit
depth required (Fig.15).
It is always more
comfortable and relaxed
to have arms fully
extended downwards as
shown in Fig.16 and on front
cover illustration.
7. Do not lift handles by excessive
bending of elbows (Fig.17).
8. As cutting action begins,
move the lawn edger forward
so that the blade can cut the
edge as you move forward
(Fig 16 & 18).
9. Continue at a moderate pace
until you are familiar with the
controls and the handling of
the Atom Edger.
12. Edging along concrete edge: For
position of blade, align edge guide
(at front of blade cover) with edge of
concrete. If blade hits concrete, lower
handles and re-position blade at side
of concrete.
! WARNING
! NOTE
A built in automatic centrifugal clutch disengages the
blade from rotating at engine idle speed. The clutch
engages the blade when the engine speed is increased.
13. Even with the grass growing over the
concrete and you cannot see the edge,you
can feel the edge of the concrete with the
rotating blades by slightly sideways tilting
the handles of the edger away from the
concrete so that the blades tilt towards the
concrete and skim below the
concrete edge which acts as a
guide (Fig. 20). Edger blades
are made from high tensile
hardened spring steel and
will last a long time. Once
the edge is established the
second and subsequent times
around are very fast.
14. Sideways Tilting: Lower either left
or right handle to achieve angle
cutting (Fig. 21).
15. Remove any tangled grass
matter around blade and shaft
to prevent damage.
