OPERATOR'S MANUAL
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling
and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the state of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
◾Lead from lead-based paints
◾Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
◾Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to lter out microscopic particles.

◾Don't use in rain.

56V LITHIUM-ION COMMERCIAL 8” CURVED SHAFT EDGER — EDX2000-C/EDX2000-C-FC 8
◾Store Idle Appliances Indoors - When not in use, appliances should be stored
indoors in a dry and high or locked-up place with the battery pack removed and
out of reach of children.
◾Maintain Appliance with Care - Keep cutting edge sharp and clean for best
performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating
and changing accessories. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
◾Check Damaged Parts - Before further use of the product, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless indicated
elsewhere in this manual.
◾Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all objects such as rocks,
broken glass, nails, wire, or string that can be thrown or become entangled in the
cutting attachment.
◾Always hold the edger rmly, with both hands on the handles, while
operating. Wrap your ngers and thumbs around the handles.
◾Avoid Accidentally Starting - Don’t carry the edger with your nger on the
trigger.
◾Do not operate the edger in gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Motors in
these appliances normally spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.
◾Do not use the edger on or near graveled surfaces.
◾Damage to Edger - If you strike a foreign object with the edger, stop the machine
immediately, check for damage and have any damage repaired before further
operation is attempted. Do not operate with a broken guard or blade.
◾Replace a cracked, damaged or worn-out blade immediately, even if
damage is limited to supercial cracks. Such attachments may shatter at high
speed and cause serious or fatal injury.

◾Do not dispose of the battery in a re. The cells may explode. Check with local
codes for possible special disposal instructions.
◾Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may
cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
◾Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with
conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or
conductor may overheat and cause burns.
◾Do not use blade, guard, front-assist handle or any other attachments or
accessories not recommended by the manufacturer of this product. The use
of attachments or accessories not recommended can result in serious personal injury.
◾Battery machines 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 machine is not operating. Take care when performing
maintenance or service.
◾Remove or disconnect the battery pack before servicing, cleaning or
removing material from the product.
◾Do not wash with a hose; avoid getting water in motor and electrical
connections.
◾Do not incinerate the appliance even if it is severely damaged. The batteries
can explode in a re.
◾Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to battery pack, picking up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the
appliance with your nger on the switch or energizing appliance that has the
switch on invites accidents.

56V LITHIUM-ION COMMERCIAL 8” CURVED SHAFT EDGER — EDX2000-C/EDX2000-C-FC 10
◾Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing appliance. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.
◾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 appliance that is damaged or modied.
Damaged or modied batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in
re, explosion or risk of injury.
◾Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to re or excessive temperature.
Exposure to re or temperature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
◾Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or
appliance outside of the temperature range specied in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside of the specied range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of re.
◾Have servicing performed by a qualied repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained.
◾Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the battery pack except
as indicated in the instructions for use and care.
◾If situations occur that are not covered in this manual, use care and good
judgment. Contact the EGO Customer Service Center for assistance.
◾Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct
others who may use this machine. If you lend this machine to someone else, also
lend these instructions to them to prevent misuse of the product and possible
injury.
