Lubricating The Blade - EGO HTA2000 Manual Del Operador

NOTICE:
Do not operate your hedge trimmer with dull or damaged blades. This may
cause overload and will give unsatisfactory cutting results.

LUBRICATING THE BLADE

To prevent rust, it is recommended to lubricate the blades with anti-rusting oil when it
is stored for long time.
If the upper blades are aligned completely with the lower ones, start the hedge trimmer
and then stop it to offset the blades before lubrication (Fig.18).

WARNING:
Blades are sharp. When handling the blade assembly, wear non-slip,
heavy-duty protective gloves. Do not place your hand or fingers between blades or in
any position where they could get pinched or cut. NEVER touch blades or service the
unit with battery pack installed.
TRANSMISSION GEARS LUBRICATION
The transmission gears in the gear case need to be lubricated periodically with gear
grease. Check the gear case grease lever approximately every 50 hours of operation by
removing the sealing screw on the gear case. There are three sealing screws: one on
the side and two on the top.
If no grease can be seen on the flanks of the gear, follow the steps below to fill with
gear grease to 3/4 capacity.
Do not completely fill the transmission gears.
