OTHER SAFETY WARNINGS
◾ Avoid Dangerous Environments – Don’t use

◾ Keep guards in place and in working order.
◾ Keep hands and feet away from the cutting area.
◾ To reduce the risk of injury, never work on a ladder
or on any other insecure support. Never hold the
cutting unit above waist height.
◾ Check the cutting unit at regular short intervals
during operation, or immediately if there is a
noticeable change in cutting behavior.
◾ For best results, your battery should be charged in
a location where the temperature is greater than
5° C and less than 40° C. Do not store it outside or
in vehicles.
◾ If you are approached, stop the motor and cutting
unit.
◾ Warn the operator of the danger of blade thrust
(only using with 3-teeth blade).
◾ Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade
contacts an object that it does not immediately cut.
◾ Blade thrust can be violent enough to cause the unit
and/or operator to be propelled in any direction, and
possibly lose control of the unit.
◾ Blade thrust can occur without warning if the blade
snags, stalls or binds.
◾ Blade thrust is more likely to occur in areas where it
is difcult to see the material being cut.
◾ Do not attach any blade to a unit without proper
installation of all required parts. Failure to use the
proper parts can cause the blade to y off and
seriously injure the operator and/or bystanders.
Discard blades that are bent, warped, cracked,
broken, or damaged in any way. Use a sharp blade
A dull blade is more likely to snag and thrust (only
using with 3-teeth blade).
◾ A coasting blade/line can cause injury while it
continues to spin after the motor is stopped or
trigger is released. Maintain proper control until
the blade/line has completely stopped rotating.
◾ Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an
electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating
condition. Be aware of possible hazards even when
the tool is not operating. Take care when performing
maintenance or service.
◾ Do not wash with a hose; avoid getting water in motor
and electrical connections.
◾ If situations occur that are not covered in this manual,
use care and good judgment. Contact the EGO
Customer Service Center for assistance.
