Question 1

How to restart the EGO Power+ RM6000E mower for immediate operation?

Accepted Answer

To quickly restart your EGO Power+ RM6000E mower if you need to put it into operation immediately, here is the procedure:

Quick Restart

First, check that the battery is charged - The 21.78V Lithium-Ion battery must be sufficiently charged (about 90 minutes of charging needed for a full charge).
Open the EGO Connect app - This is the starting point for any operation and management of the mower.
Check the GNSS signal - Make sure the mower is receiving a good positioning signal before restarting it.
Restart the app - Completely close EGO Connect, then restart it to refresh the connection with the mower.

Important Points

The RM6000E mower uses PATH IQ™ technology (a combination of RTK, VIO, and vSLAM) to operate correctly. A simple restart is not always sufficient - you must ensure that:

The Bluetooth connection with the EGO Connect app is established.
The boundary maps and exclusion zones are correctly configured.
The mower has access to the GNSS signal.

If the mower refuses to start after this procedure, consult the troubleshooting section of the manual for error codes.

Question 2

How to install the handle on the EGO BCX3800E brush cutter?

Accepted Answer

Here are the steps to install the handle on your EGO BCX3800E brush cutter:

Step 1: Loosen the wing nut of the handle connector
Step 2: Raise the handlebar 180° around the handle
Step 3: Turn the handlebar 90° counterclockwise to face the cutting head
Step 4: Move the handlebar back and forth until you find a comfortable position for your grip
Step 5: Tighten the wing nut to lock the handlebar in place

Important: Using the machine with the handlebar perpendicular to the handle is mandatory to ensure safe use. Any adjustment contrary to this position would compromise your safety.

Question 3

How to replace the cutting head with a 3-tooth blade on the EGO BC3800E?

Accepted Answer

The EGO BC3800E can be equipped with two distinct cutting systems: a nylon line cutting head (38 cm wide) or a 3-tooth blade (30 cm wide, reference ABB1203). You can switch from one system to the other by following this procedure:

Replacement Steps

1. Preparation

Remove the battery before any intervention
Disassemble the spool housing by pressing on the tabs and pulling it outwards

2. Installing the 3-tooth blade

Remove the auxiliary protective cover (three screws and washers)
Take off the blade guard provided
Align the groove of the inner flange with the locking hole of the reducer
Insert the hex key as a stabilizer into the aligned holes
Mount the blade reference ABB1203 onto the spindle
Install the outer flange and the nut, then tighten following the direction indicated by the arrow on the flange

Safety: Wear sturdy protective gloves when handling the blade - its edges are very sharp. If you wish to reinstall the cutting head in the future, the auxiliary protective cover is mandatory to prevent excessive extension of the nylon line and motor overload.

Question 4

How to load a new cutting line on the STA1600?

Accepted Answer

The EGO STA1600 trimmer uses the POWERLOAD™ system which allows for automatic loading of the cutting line by pressing a button. The line must be twisted nylon with a maximum diameter of 2.4 mm.

Initial load or complete line replacement:

Remove the battery from the motor unit for safety reasons

Gently pull on the ends of the line to check that the assembly is correct and that the line is securely attached

If the line breaks at the eyelet or does not come out:

Remove the battery immediately
Press the release tabs located on the sides and pull the lower cover of the cutting head to remove it
Remove the remaining line and the spring from the spool (keep the spring, it will be reused)

Question 7

Does the EGO Power+ LM1910E-SP mower have a mulching function?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the EGO Power+ LM1910E-SP mower has a mulching function. However, it is not included by default. As standard, the mower collects the grass cuttings in a 50-liter collection bag.

To prevent the mower from mowing between 9 PM and 8 AM, use the EGO Connect app which allows you to set programmable schedules for each zone.

Steps:

Open the EGO Connect™ app on your smartphone
Access the programming settings for your mowing zone
Set the start time to 08:00 and the end time to 21:00
Confirm the changes to apply them permanently

The mower will then adhere to this schedule every day. Note that you can configure up to 20 different zones with distinct schedules, giving you total flexibility to adapt mowing to your schedule and that of your surroundings.

Question 9

How to correctly attach and position the grass collection bag on the EGO LM1702ESP mower?

Accepted Answer

To correctly attach and position the grass collection bag on your EGO LM1702ESP mower, follow these detailed steps:

Attaching the collection bag

Prepare the bag: Ensure that the bag is clean, in good condition, and ready to be installed.
Identify the attachment points: On the back of the mower, locate the hooks, clips, or bars designed to hold the bag.
Attach the bag: Place the bag onto these attachment points, ensuring that it is properly clicked in and secured. You should hear or feel a click indicating that the bag is securely attached.

Correct positioning of the bag

Check the alignment: The bag should hang straight, without twisting or folding, to allow optimal flow of the cut grass.
Activate the safety: If your model is equipped with a locking mechanism, ensure that it is engaged to prevent the bag from detaching during use.
Test the collection: Start the mower and observe if the grass is being properly sucked into the bag. If there are issues, check that the bag is securely attached and that no obstacles are blocking the flow of grass.

By following these tips, you will ensure effective use of the grass collection bag on your EGO LM1702ESP mower.
