  If the cutting line can’t be released on your EGO Trimmer, consider these possibilities: * The motor shaft or trimmer head is wound with grass. Stop the trimmer, remove the battery and remove the grass from the motor shaft and trimmer head. * There is not enough line in the trimmer head. Remove the battery and replace the cutting line. * The trimmer head is dirty. Remove the battery and clean the lower cover assembly, spool and upper cover. * The line is tangled in the trimmer head. Remove the battery, remove the line from the spool and rewind. * The line is too short. Remove the battery and pull the line while alternately pressing down on and releasing the trimmer head.

Why does my EGO STX4500 stop working while cutting?
- B
  Bill ReyesAug 30, 2025
  Your EGO Trimmer might stop working while cutting due to several reasons: * Using a heavy cutting line. Use recommended nylon cutting line with diameter no greater than 2.7 mm. * The motor may be overloaded. The machine will recover when the load is removed. For continuous working, reduce the load of the machine. * The battery pack or machine is too hot. Allow the battery pack or machine to cool until the temperature drops below 67°C. * The battery pack is disconnected. Re-install the battery to the machine. * The battery pack is depleted. Charge the battery pack.
