Does the edger option work on edging between lawn and cement?

No, it works edging between lawn and flower beds. It is an excellent hedge trimmer for ornamental shrubs.

When leaver is in the upper position that would be for edging the sidewalk area, when it is in the lower position you can go with a deeper cut to make a trench around plants then pull out grass or weeds. I used the trencher to run a straight line in front of my azalea hedge, then pulled out grass to use in another area that I needed to get grass started rather than buy grass plugs.

I have not used an edge guide with this tool. I have used the bits with the self contained bearing on the tip for rounding the edge of lumber. I am very happy with this tool. Hope that helps.

no, it is only an edger - I also found that once you use this first - you can also use a manual stick tool edger you can find at home depot, lowes, sears - it is a quick followup to the machine edger - side note, also be careful or use landscape markers where your sprinkler heads are or you will hit them like I did - hard to see in front of the machine - that is also why the manual tool is a good followup device too !

Unfortunately, the head does not flip for edging; but the device is light enough to turn it in such a way to allow you to use it as an edger. I have done this and it works very well, especially with its very fast-running engine slicing through the thickest clump of curb over growth.

I mainly use this item for edging and I think it works well. The unit rides along the cement as you walk along and clean up your lawn. I haven't used many other brands/styles so it's hard to say how this one stacks up. I feel like I go through a lot of string, but again, I dont have anything to compare to.

There are overlapping tabs all along the edging. When overlapping, you just insert the spike into two overlapping tabs. I have made it smaller (cutting off) the edging and I have used multiple pieces to a larger project. Very simple to install. Note: if you have uneven ground (like over roots) put spikes in closer to help the edging flex over the hills and ridges. I use newspaper under my mulch. Both landscape plastic (meshy) and newspaper worked well tucked under the edges of the edging and then held down with the spikes and mulch.

We use this to edge all of our flower beds along the grass line. That is what it is for. Edging grass. Also, along the driveway. Works great

It is capable of trenching or edging in either position. It is common to be in the down position for edging and in the upper position for trenching but if you have say a concrete edge it would be in the down position for edging or trenching. The upper position is for freehand trenching without the edge guide in use. It is really a great machine!

No. It is only an edger. Does a great lob ob edging though. Sounds like you need a tiller.

Purchased the Poulan PP1000E 7-Inch Pro Lawn Edger Attachment here on Amazon. Also purchased a 'universal' style brush cutter, but from the local Home Depot that works very well.

The guide works fine. Just be careful if you pull the edger backwards.. It tends to widen the cut if you are not real careful, and go slowly.

Mine does not work on serrated edges. I think there are some others that do.

I wouldn't try to use it without having something to there to run the rubber wheel along--i.e., at least some sort of brick or other edging between the flower bed and the grass. Without having an edging, try grass shears or one of those sharp things you sort of plunge in (I don't know what they're called).

I assume you are asking about the blade, which will depend on how careful you are when edging next to concrete. I would think probably every two years.

my husband says that this does work to tilt it and use it as an edger, but he had no tips or tricks for doing this. I hope this helps you some!
