Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)First let me say that the edger starts and runs well and does a good job on the grass edging.
The throttle is really a design piece of junk, however. First, the cable comes unattached to the throttle. Count on spending 3 hours fooling with that since there are no instructions on attaching it. The instruction manual says there are instructions in the engine manual. WRONG!!!
My opinion is that the throttle setup on the engine isn't even the correct design for this edger.
So..... after you spend forever getting the throttle cable attached and adjusted, the next person to use it (my lawn guy) moved the throttle level on the engine which is easy to do since it's labeled and bends the throttle cable all to pieces up near the top of the handle. Again, this is hard to explain but it from a VERY poor design.
I solved it by tearing off the whole remote throttle cable assembly and I just use the controls down on the engine.
McLane folks were very nice when I called but offered no good solutions but they did try to help... some won't even do that much.
SO, good edger, ignore the throttle on the handle feature as it will either not be hooked up at the factory or will soon break anyway.
