IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! When using electric gardening appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:

READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE

KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

DANGER! Do not operate near electrical power lines.

The unit has not been designed to provide protection from electric shock in the event of contact with overhead electric lines, Consult local regulations for safe distances from overhead electric power lines and ensure that the operating position is safe and secure before operating the tool.

HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS

DANGER! Keep hands away from blade. Contact with blade will result in serious personal injury.

- Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade. Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off when clearing jammed material. A moment of inattention while operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal injury.

- On machines with a defined transport position (cutting blade folded flat against the hedge trimmer shaft): Never start the machine in the transport position, since the blades are not engaged in that position and you therefore cannot visually check to see that they will be stopped at idle when you start to adjust the cutting blade to the desired cutting position (where the blades are engaged).

  • Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutter blade stopped. When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer always fit the cutting device cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will reduce possible personal injury from the cutter blades.
    ■ Do not grasp the exposed cutting blades or cutting edges when picking up or holding the hedge trimmer.
  • Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden wiring. Cutter blades contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

- Keep cable away from cutting area. During operation the cable may be hidden in shrubs and can be accidentally cut by the blade.

  • Check the hedge for foreign objects before operating, e.g. wire fences.
  • To reduce the risk of injury from loss of control, be absolutely sure that the cutting blade is clear of you and all other obstructions and objects, including the ground, because when the tool starts, the motor speed will be fast enough to engaged and move the cutting blade on the tool.

  • Do not allow other persons in the general work area. Ensure that other people and pets remain at least 15m away from the hedge trimmer when it is in use.
    ■ Never allow children to operate the hedge trimmer.
    ■ Use both hands when operating the hedge trimmer. Using one hand could cause loss of control and result in serious personal injury.

  • Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Special care must be taken in slippery conditions (wet ground, snow) and in difficult, overgrown terrain. Watch for hidden obstacles such as tree stumps, roots and ditches to avoid fallen branches, scrub and cuttings. Be extremely cautious when working on slopes or uneven ground.
  • Do not use on a ladder, rooftop, tree, or other unstable support. Stable footing on a solid surface enables better control of the hedge trimmer in unexpected situations.
  • Observe the cutting blades at all times – do not cut any area if the hedge that you cannot see. When cutting the top of a taller hedge, check the other side of the hedge frequently for bystanders, animals and obstructions.

  • Check damaged parts before further use of the hedge trimmer. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may affect its operation.

  • Check the blade and motor mounting bolts at frequent intervals for proper tightness. Also, visually inspect blade for damage (e.g., bent, cracked, and worn). Replace the blade only with a blade from EGO™.
    ■ Replace the blade if it is bent or cracked. An unbalanced blade causes vibration that could damage the motor drive unit or cause personal injury.
    ■ If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the motor and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
    ■ The trimmer shall be used to cut stems less than 26mm thick.
    ■ Trim only in daylight or in good artificial light.
    ■ Do not use the battery-operated hedge trimmer in rain

ADDITIONAL WARNINGS

■ Do not charge the battery pack in rain or in wet locations.
■ Use only with the battery packs and chargers listed below: SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORKING TECHNIQUES

- Horizontal Cutting (with cutting blade at an angle): Cut close to the ground from a standing position, e.g. low shrubs.

Swing the cutting blade up and down as you move along the hedge – use both sides of the cutting blades, do not rest the cutter blade on the ground (Fig. H).

EN

■ Horizontal Cutting (with straight cutting blade)

Hold the cutting blade at an angle of 0^ to 10^ as you swing the hedge trimmer horizontally. Swing the cutting blade in an arc towards the outsides of the hedge so that the cuttings are swept to the ground (Fig. I, J & K).

Recommendation: Only cut hedges that are no more than chest height in this working position.

■ Vertical Cutting (with cutting blade at an angle):

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING: Read all safety warnings and

instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

WORK AREA SAFETY

  • Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
    ■ Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, petrol or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
  • Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

■ Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in anyway. Do not use any adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
- Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
■ Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
- Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
- When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
- If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a Ground-fault circuit interrupter protected supply. Use of GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

■ Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

■ Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

■ Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

■ Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

■ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

■ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

■ If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

  • Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
  • Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
  • Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
    ■ Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
  • Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

EN

- Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

  • Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! When using electric gardening appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:

READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE

KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

DANGER! Do not operate near electrical power lines. The unit has not been designed to provide protection from electric shock in the event of contact with overhead electric lines, Consult local regulations for safe distances from overhead electric power lines and ensure that the operating position is safe and secure before operating the tool.

POLE SAW SAFETY WARNINGS

- Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when the pole saw is operating. Before you start the pole saw, make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything. A moment of inattention while operating pole saws may cause entanglement of your clothing or body with the chain.

  • Avoid unintentional contact with the stationary saw chain or guide bar rails. These can be very sharp.
    Always wear gloves and long pants or chaps when handling the pole saw, saw chain, or guide bar.
    ■ Always hold the pole saw with your one hand on the rear handle and your other hand on the front handle. Serious injury to the operator, helpers, and/or bystanders can result from one-handed operation.
  • Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the saw chain may contact hidden wiring. Saw chains contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
    ■ Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. Further protective equipment for head, hands, legs and feet is recommended. Adequate protective clothing will reduce personal injury by flying debris or accidental contact with the saw chain.
  • Do not operate a pole saw in a tree. Operation of a pole saw while up in a tree may result in personal injury.
    ■ Always keep proper footing and operate the pole saw only when standing on fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces such as ladders may cause a loss of balance or control of the pole saw.
  • Never operate a pole saw that is damaged or improperly adjusted or that is not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the trigger switch is released.
  • Inspect the work piece for nails, wire, or other foreign objects prior to cutting.
  • When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for spring back. When the tension in the wood fibers is released the spring loaded limb may strike the operator and/or throw the pole saw out of control.
  • Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings. The slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
  • Aggressive or abusive cutting or misuse of the pole saw can cause premature bar, chain, and/or sprocket wear, as well as broken chain or bar, leading to kickback, chain throw or the ejection of material.
  • Never use the guide bar as a lever. A bent guide bar can cause premature bar, chain, and/or sprocket wear, as well as a broken chain or bar, leading to kickback, chain throw or the ejection of material.

- Carry the pole saw with two hands on the handles, with the pole saw switched off. When transporting or storing the pole saw always fit the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the pole saw will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.

- Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off when clearing jammed material. Saw chain continues to move after the switch is turned off. A moment of inattention while operating the pole pruner may result in serious personal injury.

■ Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and changing accessories. Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance for kickback. Keep cutting edge sharp and clean for best performance and to reduce the risk of injury.

- Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing loss of control.

- Cut wood only. Do not use pole saw for purposes not intended. For example: do not use pole saw for cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials. Use of the pole saw for operations different than intended could result in a hazardous situation.

■ Do not use the pole saw in bad weather conditions, especially when there is a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.

■ Stop the motor and remove the battery pack whenever you leave the tool.

■ Store Idle Appliances Indoors. When not in use, appliances should be stored indoors in a dry and high or locked-up place with the battery pack removed, out of reach of children.
- Check Damaged Parts. Before further use of the product, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless indicated elsewhere in this manual.

ADDITIONAL WARNINGS

■ Do not charge the battery pack in rain, or in wet locations.

■ Use only with EGO's battery packs and chargers.

BATTERY PACK CHARGER
BA1120E, BA2240E, BA2800CH2100E
BA3360, BA4200CH5500E

■ The battery pack must be removed from the appliance before it is scrapped.
■ The battery shall be disposed of safely.

  • Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. The cells may explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
  • Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

APPLICATIONS

You may use this product for the purpose listed below:

■ Limbing
Pruning

NOTICE: The tool is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse.

FILLING OILTANK WITH BAR AND CHAIN LUBRICANT

WARNING: Do not smoke or bring any fire or flame near the oil or the pole saw. Oil may spill and cause a fire.

NOTICE: The pole saw is not filled with oil at the time of purchase. It is essential to fill the tank with chain oil before use. Chain life and cutting capacity depend on optimum lubrication. The chain is automatically lubricated with chain oil during operation. Oil level should also be checked after every 20 minutes of use and refilled as needed.

  1. Remove the battery pack from the power head.
  2. Clean the oil tank cap and the area around it to ensure that no dirt falls into the oil tank.
  3. Place the pole saw attachment upright and rotate the oil tank cap counterclockwise to remove it (Fig. D).
  4. Carefully pour the bar and chain oil into the tank until it fills to the tank neck. Be careful not to let the oil spill from the opening. Wipe off any excess oil and close the oil tank cap.

NOTICE:

■ Use OREGON and chain oil for best results. It is specially designed to provide low friction and faster cuts.
■ Do not use dirty, used or other contaminated oils. Damage may occur to the bar or chain.

PREPARATION FOR CUTTING (Fig. B)

Refer to "Important Safety Instructions" earlier in this manual for appropriate safety equipment.

■ Lift the tip of the guide bar to check for any sagging in the chain. The chain is correctly tensioned when there is no sag on the underside of the guide bar and the chain is snug, but it can be turned by hand without binding. If the tension requires adjustment, refer to the "REPLACING THE BAR AND CHAIN" section in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual for adjustment instructions.
- Check the tension of the cover screw before use. If it is loose, securely tighten the cover screw by turning it clockwise.
- Check the sharpness of cutting teeth on the saw chain and make sure the chain is well lubricated.

■ Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and protection. LIMBING AND PRUNING

Never stand directly under the limb you are cutting. Make sure that you have a secure and balanced footing. Watch out for obstacles such as tree stumps, roots and ditches, which could cause you to trip or stumble.

  • Maintain a proper grip on the unit whenever the motor is running. Hold the unit firmly with both hands.
  • For safe and better operation, put on the shoulder strap across the shoulder. Adjust the shoulder strap into a comfortable operating position. Following the instructions in the section "MOUNTING THE SHOULDER STRAP" in PH1400E operator's manual to attach the shoulder strap onto the power head.

WARNING: The shoulder strap is also a quick release mechanism in hazardous situation. When an emergency occurs, take it off your shoulder immediately, no matter what way the strap is in.

TO START/STOP THE TOOL

See "STARTING/STOPPING THE POWER HEAD" section in the power head PH1400E operator's manual.

BASIC CUTTING PROCEDURE (Fig. E & F)

Follow the steps below to prevent damage to tree or shrub bark. Do not use a back-and-forth saw ing motion.

  1. Make a shallow first cut (1/4 of limb diameter) on the underside of the limb close to the main limb or trunk.
  2. Make a second cut from the top side of the limb outboard from the first cut. Continue the cut through the limb until the limb separates from the tree. Be prepared to balance the weight of the tool when the limb falls.
  3. Make a final cut close to trunk.

NOTICE: For second and final cuts (from top of limb or branch), hold the bucking spikes against the limb being cut (Fig. F). This will help steady the limb and make it easier to cut with light downward pressure. If you force the cut, damage to the bar, chain, or motor can result in.

  1. Release the trigger on the power head as soon as the cut is completed.

NOTICE: Failure to follow proper cutting procedures will result in the bar and chain binding and becoming pinched or trapped in the limb. If this should happen:

  1. Stop the motor and remove the battery pack.
  2. If the limb can be reached from the ground, lift the limb while holding the saw. This should release the "pinch" and free the saw.
  3. If the saw is still trapped, call a professional for assistance.

This pole saw attachment is designed for trimming small branches and limbs up to 20cm in diameter. For best results, observe the following precautions.

  1. Plan the cut carefully. Be aware of the direction in which the branch will fall.

WARNING: Branches may fall in unexpected directions. Do not stand directly under the branch being cut.

  1. The most typical cutting application is to position the unit at an angle of 60^ or less (Fig. G). As the angle of the pole saw shaft to the ground increases, the difficulty of making the first cut (from the underside of limb) increases.
  2. Remove long branches in several stages.
  3. Cut lower branches first to allow the top branch es more room to fall.
  4. Work slowly, keeping both hands on the saw with a firm grip. Maintain secure footing and balance.
  5. Do not cut from a ladder; this is extremely dangerous. Leave such operations for professionals.
  6. Do not make the flush cut next to the main limb or trunk until you have cut off much of limb to reduce the weight. Following proper cutting procedures will prevent stripping the bark from the main member.
  7. Do not use the pole saw for felling or bucking.
  8. To prevent electrocution, do not operate within 15m of overhead electrical lines and keep bystanders at least 15m away (Fig. G).

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the unit, stop the motor, wait for all moving parts to stop, and remove the battery pack. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or property damage.
WARNING: When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts can create a hazard or cause product damage. To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs, other than the items listed in these maintenance instructions, should be performed by a qualified service technician.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

CLEAN THE UNIT

■ After each use, remove the battery and clean debris from the chain and guide bar with a soft brush. Wipe the pole saw surface with a clean cloth moistened with a mild soap solution.
■ Remove the chain-sprocket cover, and then use a soft brush to remove debris from the guide bar, saw chain, sprocket and chain-sprocket cover.
■ Always clean out wood chips, saw dust, and dirt from the guide bar groove when replacing the saw chain.

NOTICE: Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing or the handle. They can be damaged by certain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon.

  1. Replace the chain-sprocket cover and the cover screw. Slightly tighten them.
  2. Remove all the slack from the chain by turning the chain-tensioning screw clockwise until the chain seats snugly against the guide bar with the drive links in the guide bar groove and lift the tip of the guide bar to check for sag. Release the tip of the guide bar and turn the chain-tensioning screw once clockwise. Repeat this process until the sag is eliminated (Fig. N).
  3. Hold the tip of the guide bar up and tighten the chain-sprocket-cover screw securely.

NOTICE: To extend the guide bar life, invert the bar occasionally.

NOTICE: If chain is too tight, it will not rotate. Loosen the chain-sprocket-cover screw slightly and turn the tensioning screw 1/4 turn counterclockwise. Lift the tip of the guide bar and retighten the chain-sprocket-cover screw securely. Assure that the chain will rotate without binding.

EN

ADJUSTING THE CHAIN TENSION

CAUTION: The saw chain must be properly tensioned before using.

  1. Stop the motor and remove the battery pack before adjusting the chain tension.
  2. Loosen the cover screw to finger tight.
  3. Turn the chain-tensioning screw clockwise to tension the chain. See the "REPLACING THE BAR AND CHAIN" section in this manual for additional information.

■ A cold chain is correctly tensioned when there is no slack on the underside of the guide bar and the chain is snug, but it can be turned by hand without binding. The chain must be re-tensioned whenever the flats on the drive links do not sit in the bar groove (Fig. 0).
■ During normal saw operation, the temperature of the chain will increase. The drive links of a correctly tensioned warm chain will hang approximately 1.3mm out of the bar groove (Fig. P).

NOTICE: New chains tend to stretch; check chain tension frequently and tension as required.

NOTICE: A chain tensioned while it is warm may be too tight upon cooling. Check the cold tension before next use.

The transmission gears in the gear case need be lubricated periodically with gear grease. Check the gear case grease level about every 50 hours of operation by removing the sealing screw on the side of the case.

If no grease can be seen on the flanks of the gear, follow the steps below to fill with gear grease up to 3/4 capacity.

Do not completely fill the transmission gears.

  1. Position the pole saw attachment on its side with sealing screw facing upwards (Fig. Q).
  2. Use the dual-head wrench provided to loosen and remove the injection screw.
  3. Use a grease syringe (not included) to inject some grease into the screw hole; do not exceed 3/4 capacity.
  4. Tighten the sealing screw after injection.

SPROCKET IN GUIDE BAR LUBRICATION

The guide bar has a sprocket at its tip. It must be lubricated weekly with chain oil injected into the lubricating hole by a grease syringe (not included) to extend the guide bar life (Fig. R). Turn the guide bar and check that the lubrication holes and chain groove are free from impurities.

- Use Safety Glasses – Always use a face or dust mask if operation is dusty.

■ Use the Right Tool—Do not use the tool for any job except that for which it is intended.

- Don't Force the Trimmer – It will do the job better and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate for which it was designed.

- Don't Overreach – Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

■ Stay Alert – Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the trimmer when you are tired.

■ Do not operate the trimmer while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

■ Keep guards in place and in working order.

- Store Trimmer Indoors – When not in use the trimmer should be stored indoors in a dry and high or locked-up place with the battery pack removed – out of reach of children.

- Maintain Trimmer With Care – Keep the cutting attachment clean for best performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow instructions for changing accessories. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

- Check Damaged Parts – Before further use of the trimmer, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless indicated elsewhere in this manual.

- Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all objects such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or line that can be thrown or become entangled in the cutting attachment. Make sure that other persons and pets are at least 15m away.

■ Before using the machine and after any impact, check for signs of wear or damage and repair as necessary.

■ Always hold the trimmer firmly, with both hands on the handles while operating. Wrap your fingers and thumbs around the handles.

- Avoid Accidentally Starting – Don't carry the trimmer with your finger on the trigger.

■ Do not operate the trimmer in petrolic or explosive atmospheres. Motors in these appliances normally spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.

■ Damage to Trimmer – If you strike a foreign object with the trimmer or it becomes entangled, stop the tool immediately, remove the battery pack from the line trimmer, check for damage and have any damage repaired before further operation is attempted. Do not operate with a broken guard or spool.

If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the motor, remove the battery pack from the line trimmer, and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

If the head loosens after fixing it in position, replace it immediately. Never use a trimmer with a loose cutting attachment.

EN

■ Replace a cracked, damaged or worn-out cutting head immediately, even if damage is limited to superficial cracks. Such attachments may shatter at high speed and cause serious or fatal injury.
- Check the cutting attachment at regular short intervals during operation, or immediately if there is a noticeable change in cutting behavior.
■ Only use EGO authorized polymer trimmer line accessories and trimmer line that are designed for use with this machine. Although certain unauthorized attachments might be fitted to the EGO line trimmer, their use may be extremely dangerous, and/or damaging to the tools.
■ To reduce the risk of serious injury, never use wire or metal-reinforced line or other material in place of the nylon cutting lines. Pieces of wire could break off and be thrown at high speed toward the operator or bystanders.
■ To reduce the risk of injury from loss of control, never work on a ladder or on any other insecure support. Never hold the cutting attachment above waist height.
■ If situations occur that are not covered in this manual, use care and good judgment. Contact the EGO Service Center for assistance
■ Do not charge the battery pack in rain, or in wet locations.

TO START/STOP THE TOOL

See “STARTING/STOPPING THE POWER HEAD” section in the power head PH1400E operator's manual.

ADJUSTING CUTTING LINE LENGTH

The trimmer head allows the operator to release more cutting line without stopping the motor. As line becomes frayed or worn, additional line can be released by lightly tapping the trimmer head on the ground while operating the trimmer (Fig. E).

NOTICE: Line release will become more difficult as the cutting line becomes shorter.

WARNING: Do not remove or alter the line-cutting blade assembly. Excessive line length will cause the motor to overheat and may result in serious personal injury.

LINE REPLACEMENT

NOTICE: Always use the recommended nylon cutting line with a diameter that does not exceed 2.4 mm. Using line other than that specified may cause the line trimmer to overheat or become damaged.

WARNING: Never use metal-reinforced line, wire, or rope, etc. These can break off and become dangerous projectiles.

  1. Remove the battery pack
  2. Remove the remaining cutting line, if necessary. Simply pull it out by hand.
  3. Rotate the spool retainer in the direction indicated by the arrow, as necessary, to align the LOAD line on the spool retainer with the eyelets in the spool base (Fig. F).

  4. Cut 5m long cutting line, about 5 times the length of the trimmer aluminium shaft. Insert the line into the mounting hole inside the eyelet (Fig. G). Push and pull the line from the other side until equal amounts of line appear on both sides of the spool.

  5. Press, while rotating the spool retainer in the arrow direction, to wind the line onto the spool until approximately 14cm of line is showing on each side (Fig. H).
  6. Push the spool retainer down while pulling on the lines to manually advance the line and to check for proper assembly of the trimmer head.

When the cutting line breaks from the line outlet or the cutting line is not released when tapping the trimmer head, follow the steps below:

  1. Remove the battery pack.
  2. Press the release tabs on the spool retainer and remove the spool retainer by pulling it straight out (Fig. I & J).
  3. Remove the cutting line from the spool retainer.
  4. With one hand holding the spool base, use the other hand to grasp the spool retainer and align the tabs on the spool retainer with the holes in the spool base (Fig. K); use your palm to press and rotate the spool retainer left and right until the tabs lock with the spool base (Fig. L).
  5. Following the instructions in "LINE REPLACEMENT" to reload the cutting line.

When the tool is intended to use as a brush cutter, follow the steps as Fig. M & N shown to disassemble the trimmer head.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the unit, stop the motor, wait for all moving parts to stop, and remove the battery pack. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or property damage.

Do not completely fill the transmission gears.

  1. Hold the line trimmer on its side so that the sealing screw is facing upwards (Fig. 0).
  2. Use the multi-function wrench provided to loosen and remove the sealing screw.
  3. Use a grease syringe (not included) to inject some grease into the screw hole; do not exceed 3/4 capacity.
  4. Tighten the sealing screw after injection.

STORING THE UNIT

■ Remove the battery pack from the trimmer.
■ Clean the tool thoroughly before storing it.
■ If the line trimmer attachment is removed from the power head and stored separately: Fit the end cap on the attachment shaft to avoid dirt getting into the coupler.
