Abstract
A lawn edger includes an edge guide movable between a curb-edging mode and a trench mode. A lever is connected to the edge guide and extends through an aperture of a blade guard that is positioned to cover at least a portion of the cutting blade. The lever is positionable to move the edge guide between the curb-edging mode and the trench mode. When the edge guide is in the trench mode, the lever moves from a retracted position into an extended position, thereby providing a visual directional to the user.
