◾
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the machine before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing machines. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the machine accidentally.
◾
Store idle machines out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
machine or these instructions to operate the
machine. Machines are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
◾
Maintain machines and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect
the machine's operation. If damaged, have the
machine repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained machines.
◾
Keep cutting machines sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting machines with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
◾
Use the machine, accessories and machine bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work
to be performed. Use of the machine for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
◾
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the machine in unexpected situations.
BATTERY MACHINE USE AND CARE
◾
Recharge only with the charger specified 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 machines only with specifically 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, flush 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 machine that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
◾
Do not expose a battery pack or machine to
fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
◾
Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or machine outside the
temperature range specified 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 machine serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the machine is
maintained.
◾
Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SAFETY WARNINGS FOR POWER HEAD
◾
This power head PHA7400E may be used with only
the following EGO attachments or subsequently
introduced by EGO for use with this power head:
ATTACHMENT TYPE
MODEL NUMBER
Earth Auger Bit
ETA0800E
Ice Auger Bit
ITA0800E
◾
Replace augers if cracked, bent, or damaged in
any way. Operating the machine with a damaged
auger can result in serious injury.
◾
Never use the auger with the handles above waist
level. This restricts control of the auger and may
increase the risk of injury.
◾
Hold the machine with both hands at the intended
handles. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
◾
Hold the machine by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the digging
accessory may contact hidden wiring. Digging
accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the machine "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
◾
To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use the
auger near any buried electrical power cables.
Contact with or use near buried electrical power cables
may cause serious injury or electric shock resulting
in death.
