Tips for best brush-cutting
◾ Always hold the brush cutter on your right side with
both hands when operating. Use a firm grip on both
handles.
◾ Maintain your grip and balance on both feet. Position
yourself so that you will not be drawn off balance by
the kickback reaction of the cutting blade.
◾ Inspect and clear the area of any hidden objects such
as glass, rocks, concrete, fencing, wire, wood, metal,
etc., which can be thrown or entangled in the blade.
◾ Never use blades near sidewalks, fencing, posts,
buildings or other immovable objects.
◾ Never use a blade after hitting a hard object without
first inspecting it for damage. Do not use if any
damage is detected.
◾ Use the unit for cutting from the right to the left in a
broad sweeping action from side to side.
◾ Use only the EGOTM blade. Using any other brand
blade with this brushcutter could result in serious
personal injury.
CONVERTING THE MACHINE TO A STRING TRIMMER
This brushcutter can be converted into a string trimmer
using the EGO kit AH3810 (Sold Separately). The
required steps are:
◾ Replacement of the metal blade with a string trimmer
head.
◾ Replacement of the brushcutter guard with the string
trimmer guard.
REPLACE THE 3-TOOTH BLADE WITH THE STRING
TRIMMER
HEAD (EGO KIT AH3810, SOLD SEPARATELY)
Familiarize yourself with the cutter head by referring to
Fig. J1.
Follow the steps below to remove the 3-tooth blade and
mount the trimmer head.
1. Disconnect the battery pack.
2. Rotate the outer flange to align the slot in the inner
flange with the shaft-locking hole in the gear case
and insert the included hex key into the aligned holes
to act as a stabilizer.
3. Wear gloves. Position the gear case against a solid
surface for support. Use one hand to grasp the blade
and the other hand to loosen the nut in the direction
of the arrow marked on the outer flange, using the
included multi-function wrench. Remove the 3-tooth
blade, nut and the outer flange and save them for
reassembly (Fig. J2 & J3).
4. Before mounting the trimmer head, make sure that the
inner flange and flange cover are located correctly on
the motor shaft as shown in (Fig. J4 & J5).
5. Align the drive shaft with the screw hole of trimmer
head, and then pretighten the trimmer head onto the
shaft COUNTERCLOCKWISE.
6. Rotate the trimmer head to align the slot in the flange
with the shaft-locking hole in the gear case and
insert the provided hex key into the aligned holes to
act as a stabilizer.
7. Wear gloves. Securely tighten the trimmer head onto
the shaft COUNTERCLOCKWISE (Fig. J6).
