POSITION TO
ELIMINATE
ACCIDENTAL
STARTING
AND
FIRE RISK BEFORE
ATTEMPTING
TO
CLEAN EDGER. FIT NEW BLADE. OR CARRY
OUT
ANY
MAINTENANCE
OR REPAIRS.
1.
Know
your
controls.
Read
the
instructions carefully.
Learn
how
to
stop
the
engine
quickly
in an emergen-
cy
by
moving
throttle
lever
to
"STOP".
2.
Do
not
allow children
or
people unfamiliar
with
these
instructions
to
use
the
edger.
3. Before using, always visually inspect
to
see
that
cut-
ting
blade, blade
nut
and
cutter
assembly are
not
worn
or
damaged. Replace
worn
or
damaged blade
to
preserve balance.
4. Check all nuts,
bolts
and screws
often;
always be
sure the machine is in safe operating
condition.
Use
only
replacement parts made and guaranteed
by
Victa.
5.
Make sure
the
edges are clear
of
sticks, stones,
bones,
wire
and debris before you cut.
They
could
be
thrown
by
the
blade.
6.
Do
not
operate
the
edger
whilst
people, especially
children
or
pets are in
the
operating area.
7.
Add
fuel BEFORE starting engine.
Avoid
spilling
petrol and
do
not
fill
tank
while
engine is running
or
while you are smoking.
8. Never use
the
edger unless
the
guards
provided
by
the
manufacturer, are in position.
9.
Do
not
use
the
edger
barefoot
or
in open sandals.
Wear
long trousers and heavy shoes.
10.
It
is
advisable
to
wear
suitable eye
protection
when
operating an edger.
11.
Start
the engine carefully
with
feet well
away
from
the
blade.
Note
starting
instructions

12.
Do
not
operate engine in a
confined
space
where
ex-
haust
fumes
(carbon
monoxide)
can collect.
13.
Stop
the
engine
whenever
you
leave
the
edger, even
for
a
moment.
14.
Stop
the
engine
before
pushing
edger
across drives,
walks
or
roads.
15. Never
lift
or
carry an edger
when
the
engine
is
runn-
ing.
16. On slopes
or
wet
grass, be extra careful
of
your
footing.
17. Never
cut
edges
by
pulling
the
edger
towards
you.
You
might
slip and pull
the
machine
on
top
of
yourself.
18".
Do
not
overspeed
the
engine
or
alter
governor
set-
tings. Excessive speed is
dangerous
and
shortens
edger
life.
19.
At
the
conclusion
of
cutting
move
throttle
lever
to
"Stop"
position
and
turn
off

20.
Store
fuel in a cool place in a container specifically
designed
for
the
purpose. In general, plastic con-
tainers are unsuitable.
21.
IMPORTANT:
The
edger
may
throw
dirt
or

FUEL
SPECIFICATIONS
VICTA RECOMMENDS
"BP
ZOOM
25"
WHICH IS COLOURED
GREEN
FOR
EASY IDENTIFICA-
TION.
An
acceptable alternative fuel
is
a mixture
of
"BP
EZimix," or an equivalent high grade two-stroke oil,
and regular petrol in a ratio
of
approximately 25:1 (fuel
to
oill.
To obtain the correct
fuel/
oil mixture pour the appropriate
quantity
of
two-stroke oil into a can and
fill
with
petrol (examples:
for
a 5 litre can add 200
mL
of
oil;
for
a 4.2 litre can add 160
mL
of
oill.
Ensure contents are thoroughly mixed.
Note:
Super
may
be
used
if
regular
is
not
available.
Care
must
be
taken
to
ensure
that
all utensils
are
clean and that no
dirt
or
foreign matter
is
permitted
to contaminate the
fuel/oil
during the mixing process.
The
use
of
the fuel mixture specified above is a condition
of
the edger Warranty.
Warning:
-The use
of
car oils (multigrade) in two-stroke engine fuel will reduce engine life.

to
start the engine, the height adjustment should be set in the maximum
height position.
2.
FUEL. Ensure
that
the fuel tank is filled
with
the correct fuel
as
specified.
3.
FUEL TAP. The Victa Edger is normally despatched
from
the
factory
with
the fuel tap in the
"ON"
position.
Check
that
the red tap
is
turned anti-clockwise
to
the position indicated on the label directly above the fuel·tap.
Pause
for
approximately ten (10) seconds
to
allow the fuel
to
reach and fill the carburettor. See Fig. 1 opposite.
4.
THROTILE

throttle
control has five (5) settings, STOP, COLD

IMPORTANT: More than one press
on
the
priming
bulb
or holding the
bulb
pressed in
will
result in excess fuel supply
to
the engine.
If
this has occurred set
the
throttle
lever
to
"HOT

and pull starter handle briskly several times.
The Zip
Start
valve will
allow
the engine
to
clear itself
of
the
excess fuel.
NOTE: This engine is equipped
with
the Victa patented ZIP starter system. This is an
automatic
decompression
unit
which
acts
as
a compression release
during
the
early stage
of
the
starting operation.
NORMAL
OPERATION
AND
BLADE
LIFE
The
"GRASSCUTTING"
position
of
the
throttle
lever is the
maximum
governed speed
of
the
engine. It is
not
normally
necessary
to
run the engine
at
this speed
for
edge
cutting.
The engine should be run at the
slowest
speed
which
produces a satisfactory result.
Excessive engine speed causes rapid blade
wear.
For best blade
life
use
slowest
engine
speed necessary.

OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
TO
TRIM
PATHS,
KERBS,
ETC.
Set the cutting height adjustment lever so
that
the
blade tip cuts approximately 30 mm below the surface. A
line cast on the baseplate and an
arrow
on the blade
guard indicate the vertical cutting plane
of
the blade. See
illustration below. Align these
two
indicators
with
the
edge
of
the path
or
kerb, etc.,
which
is
to
be cut and
always
cut
in a forward direction. Do
not
allow the blade
to
continually contact any concrete
or
other hard edge.
AGAINST
WALLS,
FENCES, ETC.
To
enable the Victa Edger
to
cut right
up
to
a wall
or
fence,
the
cutting head may be tilted 15°
to
the
right
by
means
of
the
tilt
control located
at
the rear
of
the
machine. See illustration below. Using
the
left-hand side
of
the
machine
as
a guide against
the
vertical surface,
cut
a
narrow
groove between
the
wall and the lawn. It
should be noted
that
this operation
will
produce its best
results
when
the blade
is
new. Should the blade be
worn
beyond the notches in its end
it
will
not
cut
a satisfactory
trench.

HINTS
FOR SUCCESSFUL
EDGING.
1.
In many situations
it
will be
found
that
setting the cutter head in
the
tilt
position will give a
more satisfactory result.
Examples are: where grass surface is considerably higher than path, a grass-to-garden
edge, etc., experimentation in
your
own
garden will quickly reveal
the
best setting
for
your
particular conditions.
2.,
Clippings and soil left by
the
edger may be collected by using a Victa
mower
fitted
with
a
grasscatcher.
3.
When cutting up
to
a vertical surface, the
deepest
cut
possible
will give best results,
with
the cutting head set in
"tilt"
position.
4.
For cutting around angled corners, on garden beds, etc.,
the
machine
may
be manoeuvred
on its
front
wheel by
carefully
lifting the handles.

cut
out
does
not
stop
the
engine
when
the

from
turning, pass a suitable
metal rod
through
the
two
holes provided in
the
blade guard.
With
a suitable spanner
unscrew
the
blade

in an anti-clockwise
direction.
See

N.B.
When
the

that
the
throttle

is
set
in the
"STOP"
position
to
eliminate accidental starting
and fire risk before
attempting
to
replace the V Belt.
Remove the spindle pulley belt guard, drain the fuel
from
the tank and
turn
the edger
onto
its right-hand side.
Remove and discard the old belt.
Loop a
new
V Belt around the
motor
pulley and
twist
the
belt so
that
the uppermost span from the
motor
pulley
runs directly
into
the
groove
at
the

Slowly
operate the starter and
check
that
the

REPLACING V BELT
CLEANING BLADE
GUARD
The inside
of
the blade guard should be cleaned
to
remove clogged
dirt
or
grass,
which
if
allowed
to
build
up
will affect the
cutting
performance.
If
at
any time ex-
cessive
dirt
or
grass build-up occurs inside
the
guard,
stop the engine and remove
the
spark plug lead
from
the
spark plug
to
prevent accidental starting. Using a screw
driver
or
stick, clear all debris
from
the three slots (see il-
lustration page
6)
and
at
the same time clear all caked-on
mud
and/or
grass
from
inside the blade guard.
After
each period
of
use the blade
guard'
may be hosed
out
before storing the edger.
TO REPOSITION BLADE
GUARD.
If
at
any time the blade guard should be removed
or
displaced, reposition
it
so that the outer edge
of.
the
guard and the left-hand edge
of
the baseplate are
ahg~
ed.
At
the same time,
with
the height adjustment
pOSI-
tioned in the third

of
the blade guard should be parallel
to
the ground.
