this machine is WAY better than a spade shovel
What happens here
Begin by starting the gas-powered bed edger. Once running, 'gas it up all the way down' to ensure the blade is spinning at full speed. Engage the blade by holding the 'left trigger' (or corresponding blade engagement lever) and then slowly 'set it down' into the existing edge of the mulch bed. Do not force the blade into the ground; instead, allow it to gradually cut through the grass and soil. Guide the edger along the desired line, maintaining a steady pace.
Goal: Create a clean, defined trench between the lawn and mulch bed
