GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and specications
provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, re
and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
◾Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
◾Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, petrols or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
◾Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
◾Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock.
◾Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
◾Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
◾Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
◾When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
◾If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
◾Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the inuence of drugs, alcohol medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
◾Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
◾Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the
switch or energizing power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
◾Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
◾Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
◾Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
◾If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust
devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
◾Recommendation that the tool always be supplied
via a residual current device having a rated
residual current of 30 mA or less.
◾Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
◾Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
◾Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
◾Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
◾Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
◾Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect
the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
◾Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
◾Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
◾Keep handles and grasping surface dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
◾Recharge only with the charger specied by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of re when used
with another battery pack.
◾Use power tools only with specically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and re.
◾When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a re.
◾Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
◾Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged
or modied. Damaged or modied batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in re,
explosion or risk of injury.
◾Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re
or excessive temperature. Exposure to re or
temperature above 100 °C may cause explosion.
◾Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specied in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specied
range may damage the battery and increase the risk
of re.

◾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.
◾Only use EGO blade accessories and blade that
are designed for use with this brushcutter.
Unauthorized units might be extremely dangerous,
and/or damaging to the tools.
◾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 difcult 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.

56 VOLT LITHIUM-ION REAR MOTOR BIKE-HANDLE BRUSHCUTTER — BCX380014
Line replacement
WARNING: Never use metal-reinforced line, wire,
or rope, etc. These can break off and become dangerous
projectiles.
Press the release tabs on the spool retainer and pull
the spool retainer out (Fig. H1 & H2). Follow the step
6 of “REPLACE THE 3-TEETH BLADE WITH THE
TRIMMER HEAD” to assemble a new trimmer line to the
brushcutter.
Using with 3-Teeth Blade
WARNING: To cut wild growth and scrub, lower the
rotating 3-teeth blade down onto the growth to achieve a
chopping effect. Use the brushcutter like a scythe (sweep
it to the right and left) at ground level. Do not use the
cutting unit above waist height.
WARNING: The higher the cutting unit is off the
ground, the greater the risk of injury from cuttings being
thrown sideways.
WARNING: When cutting young stands or other
woody materials up to 2cm in diameter, use the left
side of the blade to avoid blade thrust situations. Do not
attempt to cut woody material with a larger diameter,
since the blade may catch or jerk the brushcutter
forward. This may cause damage to the blade or
the brushcutter or loss of control of the brushcutter,
resulting personal injury.
WARNING: Improper use of a blade may cause it to
crack, chip, or shatter. Thrown parts may seriously injure
the operator or bystander. To reduce the risk of personal
injury, it is essential to take the following precautions:
◾Avoid contact with hard or solid foreign objects such as
stones, rocks or pieces of metal.
◾Never cut wood or shrubs with a stem diameter of more
than 2cm.
◾Inspect the blade at a regular short interval for signs of
damage. Do not continue working with a damaged blade.
◾Re-sharpen the blade regularly (when it has dulled
noticeably) and have it balanced if necessary (performed
by a qualied service technician).
Blade Thrust
Exercise extreme caution when using the 3-teeth blade with
this unit. Blade thrust is the reaction that may occur when the
spinning blade contacts anything it cannot cut. This contact
may cause the blade to stop for an instant and suddenly
“thrust” the unit away from the object that was hit. This
reaction can be violent enough to cause the operator to lose
control of the unit. Blade thrust can occur without warning if
the blade snags, stalls, or binds. This is more likely to occur
in areas where it is difcult to see the material being cut.
For cutting ease and safety, approach the weeds being cut
with the brushcutter from the right to the left. In the event
an unexpected object or woody stock is encountered, this
practice could minimise the blade thrust reaction.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing
the unit, stop the motor, wait for all moving parts to stop,
and remove the battery pack. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in serious personal injury or
property damage.
WARNING: When servicing, use only identical
replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a
hazard or cause product damage. To ensure safety and
reliability, all repairs should be performed by a qualied
service technician.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use.
Use clean clothes to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
CLEAN THE MACHINE
◾After each use of 3-teeth blade / trimmer head, clean
the debris, clogged soils or grass on the blade and

replace with a new line-cutting blade as necessary.
◾After each use of brushcutter, clean the cutting unit
using a damp cloth with a mild detergent.
◾Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing
or the handle. They can be damaged by certain aromatic
oils, such as pine and lemon, and by solvents such as
kerosene. Moisture can also cause a shock hazard. Wipe
off any moisture with a soft dry cloth.
◾Use a small brush or a small vacuum cleaner to clean
the air vents on the rear housing.
LUBRICATE THE GEAR CASE
For best operation and longer lifetime, lubricate the gear
case with a special grease (4-5g each time) after every
50 hours operation.
The special grease should meet the following requirements.
1. Belong to DIN51818: NLGI-1 cone penetration degree.
2. Ester base grease.
