Why Hitachi CG 40EAS (P) engine does not start?
- T
  Tracey NunezJul 31, 2025
  Several factors can prevent your Hitachi Trimmer's engine from starting. These include an empty or low fuel tank (fill it with the correct fuel mix, 25:1-50:1), old fuel in the tank (replace it with new fuel), or a wet spark plug due to too much fuel (disconnect the spark plug and allow it to dry, pull the starter handle 5 or 6 times to remove the surplus fuel, attach the spark plug, then set the choke lever to RUN and pull the starter handle). Other potential causes include a clogged fuel filter (clean it), a bent or disconnected fuel pipe (ensure smooth fuel flow), a dirty spark plug (replace or clean it), an electrode gap that is too big (adjust to 0.6mm), or a poor connection between the high tension cable and spark plug (reconnect it).

What to do if Hitachi CG 40EAS (P) Trimmer engine starts but cuts out straightaway?
- J

  If your Hitachi Trimmer engine starts and then immediately cuts out, it could be due to several reasons. Make sure the fuel tank isn't empty or low; if so, fill it with the correct fuel mix (25:1-50:1). Old fuel can also cause this, so replace it with new fuel. Ensure the choke lever is set to the RUN position. Also, check for air in the fuel system and reconnect the fuel pipe or joint if needed. If the ignition has failed, replace the spark plug. Clean a dirty air cleaner and if there is carbon clogging (muffler exhaust port) clean it.

  Abnormal vibration in your Hitachi Trimmer can stem from a few issues: the cutting attachment might not be properly installed, a handle, handle bracket, or other fastening part could be loose (check and tighten), the blade might be bent or damaged (replace with a new blade), or grass might be wrapped around the gear case (remove grass).

Why Hitachi Trimmer has abnormal vibration?
- D
  Devon PriceAug 26, 2025
  Abnormal vibration in your Hitachi Trimmer can be caused by several factors: the cutting attachment might not be properly installed, so refer to “Installation of cutting attachment”; a handle, handle bracket, or other fastening part might be loose, so check and tighten it; the blade could be bent or damaged, so replace it with a new one; or grass might be wrapped around the gear case, so remove the grass.
