GENERAL BATTERY-OPERATED 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, ﬁre and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

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, gases 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.

◾Avoid Dangerous Environment - Don't use appliances in damp or wet locations.

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 or medication. A moment of inattention while

operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

◾Always use personal protective equipment. Personal protective equipment

such as eye protection, dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat and/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 the battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools with your ﬁnger 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 moving 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.

56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS BRUSHLESS STRING TRIMMER — ST1620/ST1620-FC6

◾Cautionary statements regarding the use of proper clothing and footwear

during operation to reduce the risk of injury that may be caused by ying

debris.

◾If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection

facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust

collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

◾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.

◾Use Right Appliance – Do not use appliance for any job except that for which it

is intended.

◾Remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool and/or activate

any battery disabling device before clearing jammed material, making any

adjustments, changing accessories, cleaning, or storing power tools. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

◾Store Idle Appliances Indoors – When not in use, appliances should be

stored indoors in dry, and high or locked-up place – out of reach of children.

◾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 and accessories.

◾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, 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.

56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS BRUSHLESS STRING TRIMMER — ST1620/ST1620-FC 7

◾Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

Slippery handles and grasping surfaces may lead to unsafe handling and/or loss

of control of the tool.

◾Keep cables away from the working area of the tool. During operation cables

may be hidden from view and can be accidentally damaged by the tool.

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 ﬁre when used with

another battery pack. Use only with the battery packs and chargers listed below.

CH7000,CH7000-FC

◾Use power tools only with specically designated battery packs. Use of any

other battery packs may create a risk of injury and ﬁre.

◾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 ﬁre.

◾Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid

contact. If contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contact

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

modiﬁed batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in ﬁre, explosion

or risk of injury.

◾Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re or excessive temperature.

Exposure to ﬁre or temperature above 212 °F (100°C) may cause explosion.

◾Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the battery pack (as

applicable) except as indicated in the instructions for use and care.

56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS BRUSHLESS STRING TRIMMER — ST1620/ST1620-FC8

◾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 speciﬁed range may damage the

battery and increase the risk of ﬁre.

SERVICE

◾Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only

identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is

maintained.

◾Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be

performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR STRING TRIMMER

◾When replacing the cutting line, use EGO 0.095 in. (2.4 mm) nylon line; using

heavier lines than recommended by the manufacturer increases the load on the

motor and reduces its operating speed. This results in overheating and damage to

the trimmer.

◾To reduce the risk of serious injury, never use wire or metal-reinforced line

or other material in place of the nylon cutting lines. Pieces of wire could

break off and be thrown at high speed toward the operator or bystanders.

◾Replace a cracked, damaged or worn-out cutting head immediately, even if

damage is limited to supercial cracks. Such attachments may shatter at high

speed and cause serious or fatal injury.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

◾If the power tool should start to vibrate abnormally or become noisy, stop

the motor and check immediately for the cause. Abnormal noise is generally a

warning of trouble.

◾Make sure all proper guards and other safety devices are properly and

securely attached before using this product. Do not operate without guards

in place.

◾Do not charge the battery pack in rain, or in wet locations.

◾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.

56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS BRUSHLESS STRING TRIMMER — ST1620/ST1620-FC 9

◾Battery tools 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 tool is not operating. Take care when performing maintenance or

service.

◾Do not wash with a hose; avoid getting water in motor and electrical

connections.

◾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 tool. If you lend this tool to someone else, also lend

these instructions to them to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.
