Frequently Asked Questions - CG 24EKS (SL) HITACHI
What is the fuel mixture ratio for the Hitachi CG 24EKS (SL) hedge trimmer?
The recommended fuel mixture ratio is 50:1, which means 50 parts gasoline to 1 part high-quality 2-stroke oil. Always use fresh fuel and mix in a clean container.
How do I start the hedge trimmer?
1. Fill the fuel tank with the correct mixture. 2. Set the choke lever to the 'cold start' position. 3. Press the primer bulb 5-6 times. 4. Pull the starter rope until the engine tries to start. 5. Open the choke and pull the starter rope again. 6. Allow the engine to warm up for a few seconds before cutting.
What type of oil should I use for the 2-stroke mixture?
Use a high-quality synthetic or semi-synthetic 2-stroke oil that meets ISO-L-EGD or JASO FD standards. Do not use automotive oil or outboard motor oil.
How often should I sharpen the blades?
Sharpen the blades when they become dull, typically after 20-25 hours of use. Use a fine file or a sharpening stone, and follow the original bevel angle. For professional use, consider taking it to a service center.
What type of spark plug does the CG 24EKS (SL) use?
The recommended spark plug is NGK BPMR7A or equivalent. Check the gap (0.6-0.7 mm) and replace it annually or every 100 hours of operation.
How do I clean the air filter?
Remove the air filter cover and take out the foam filter. Wash it in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and let it dry completely. Do not use compressed air. Re-oil the filter with clean 2-stroke oil before reinstalling.
Is the Hitachi CG 24EKS (SL) suitable for heavy-duty professional use?
Yes, this model is designed for commercial and professional applications. Its 24 cc engine and 24-inch blade provide ample power and reach for tough hedges and shrubs.
How do I store the hedge trimmer for long periods?
Drain the fuel tank completely by running the engine dry. Clean the exterior and blades. Apply a light coat of oil to the blade. Store in a dry, well-ventilated area away from children. Remove the spark plug and add a teaspoon of oil into the cylinder, then pull the starter rope slowly to distribute.
What is the correct blade pitch for this model?
The blade pitch (distance between teeth) is 25 mm. This allows efficient cutting of medium to thick branches up to 25 mm diameter.
