Product Information

On the other hand, if you’re only concerned about edging your driveway and sidewalk, you will likely be good with a rotary edger. Even if you throw in a garden, a rotary will work well if you have light soil. As mentioned, you can use this tool to aerate the soil or dig a drainage ditch if need be. So, apart from just edging, you’ll find this landscaping tool handy when digging trenches in your yard for planting bushes, installing outdoor lighting, and laying wires in your yard a much easier task to do. Gold teil grass trimmer has a professional-grade construction comprising lightweight aluminium and plastic. You only have to press one button and it changes the function from trimmer to edger. So, the tool is useful for a variety of tasks in your garden but never damages any of the plants. It is also quiet compared to most of the gas-powered lawn edgers I’ve reviewed on this list. You do not need to mix the gas with oil or drag a cord around as you edge your lawn, pavements, and driveways.

You can use an electric grinder like the bench grinder for sharpening purposes. If you are on a budget and looking for a great bench grinder, you can go for the WEN 4280. It is cheaper, has a work light, and is a variable speed grinder. However, if you are more concerned about the power and not the cost, Dewalt DW758 is the best choice. This grinder is powerful and has lesser vibrations compared to other electric grinders. Another creative design comes in the form of the Radius Garden 206 PRO Ergonomic Stainless Steel Edger. The Radius’s most notable feature is its bold O-shaped handle.The plastic release button on the handle does feel a little bit flimsy, but the “heft” of the actual edger should easily be sufficient to achieve sharp edges without exerting too much pressure on the handle. We found that the Echo PE-225 was compact, lightweight, easy to operate, and easy to store. We started by mixing a fresh batch of 50:1 2-cycle fuel. The manufacturer’s instructions called for 89-octane or higher gasoline. The edger came with enough 2-cycle oil to mix with 1 gallon of gas. The 12.8-ounce fuel tank held more than enough to edge the entire test property three times. Those with small yards should consider using a fuel stabilizer to protect the engine from gum and varnish buildup associated with stored fuel. At 5.4 kg, LGT01A is lightweight. It has an ergonomic grip and an extra auxiliary handle for additional balance. The secondary handle is adjustable and hence, you can easily cut at different heights without any problem. Grass cutting sessions will not take much of your time because this garden maintenance tool has a maximum speed of 7500 rpm.

In terms of materials, all blades are made from steel, some with carbon steel, and others with 12- or 14-Gauge steel. We don’t really have a preference, so this choice will be up to you. How to Edge Your Yard Using a Manual Lawn Edger When shopping for a rotary edger, look out for options with high-quality pneumatic wheels and self-sharpening blades. These edgers roll along the ground with ease. One of our favorite things about the Yard Butler Edger is its stirrup-like step. Users can insert their foot of choice directly above the rounded blade. This enables them to edge an entire area in one continuous motion. These put less stress on a user’s body.You should sharpen the blades periodically after using them for about 50 hours. However, the time depends on the specific edger trimmer you are using. Always read the product’s manual guide to get the specifications of your trimmer. Even if the recommended time before sharpening is 50 hours, you can sharpen it earlier if you feel that it is dull and thus the performance is poor. How much do edgers cost? The Truper 32100 Tru Tough Rotary Lawn Edger is the best manual lawn edger you can buy for the value it provides. The Blue Ridge electric grass trimmer comes with a 600W motor that works at 10, 000 RPM. With a cutting diameter of 12.5 inches and an edging wheel, the trimmer offers high-quality cutting results.

Makita DUR181Z has a safety catch that you can disengage using your thumb to pull the trigger for an easy start. It comes with single line nylon cord with a bump and feed mechanism. So, you need to simply bump its metal feed against the ground.
