EGO AH1531 Manual De Operación

REPLACEMENT STRING TRIMMER HEAD
This replacement string trimmer head is exclusively compatible with
EGO multi-tool string trimmer attachment STA1500 /STA1500-FC and EGO rear motor
string trimmer ST1530/ST1530-FC.
DANGER:
If the head loosens after it is fixed in position, replace it immediately. Never use a trimmer
with a loose cutting attachment. Replace a cracked, damaged or worn out cutting head immediately, even
if damage is limited to superficial cracks. Such attachments may shatter at high speed and cause serious
injury.
WARNING:
Always remove the battery pack from the product when you are assembling parts,
making adjustments, cleaning, or when the product is not in use.
