Thank you for this demo. It was very helpful for a 70 year old woman who has not assembled too many tools.
So glad to help! Thank you for watching. Check out hundreds more of our videos at www.aroundthehome.org
Thank you, I am a widow whom my husband treated like a princess. I had no idea about assembly of those tools. I couldn't do it without your help.
Glad I could help!
Here is my full EGO playlist ua-cam.com/play/PLxwydrM6xLuXnc39AF0vaAYvLdauVFlBU.html
Great demo - as usual much easier to see something done rather than read about how to do it. Just got my Ego trimmer yesterday (3rd Ego product), and it’s ready for my lawn in minutes thanks to your video.
Glad to help. Here is our entire EGO playlist that has over 50 helpful videos. ua-cam.com/play/PLxwydrM6xLuXnc39AF0vaAYvLdauVFlBU.html
Thank you so much! This is my first weeder and the video was exactly what I needed to help me get started.
Glad I could help! If this is your first time using a weed eater / string trimmer or if you just are still a beginner, then this video should help even more. ua-cam.com/video/TPqZn_qTmkY/v-deo.html
This video was very helpful. Also I love how authentic you are
Thank you very much
Thank you VERY much. My new EGO trimmer arrives tomorrow and now I feel prepared to assemble and use it. By the way, a very nicely done video.

Excellent video. A MILLION Thanks to YOU!! Bought one yesterday. Was afraid to put together, but thanks to YOU & your video with excellent tips like rotating the handle it's assembled & I'm ready to get to work.
Very welcome. Thanks for watching.
Many thanks for teaching us about putting together this trimmer. It's my first trimmer ever, and I've never used one before now. Next I'll be reading about how to use a string trimmer and will be watching videos about how to use one.

Thanks for watching!
Appreciate the great instructional "To-the-Point" video. You gave an excellent overview and assembly instructions.

Awesome, thank you!

I just picked up an Ego self-propelled mower recently & stumbled upon your channel. thanks for sharig useful info.
2 questions...
- how would I care for batteries, when they are not in use, or during cold (and sometimes wet) winter months?
- how often should blades be sharpened, if i plan to mow my yard every 2 weeks?
I bought one of these trimmers 3 days ago , it is a great trimmer. My trimmer does not have the same handle set up, adjustable shaft length, or variable speed trigger. I thought I was getting the model with the smart line auto feed but apparently, I didn't which I think is probably best anyway. There seem to be several models with different features so look closely before you buy. I got the one with the 2.5 AMP battery which is OK for me as it runs 35 to 40 minutes but a bigger battery would be better for a person using it for bigger jobs. I have been using it basically as a bush hog in some overgrown areas and it has not disappointed so far. I am a single woman who has some shoulder issues and doesn't want to fool with temperamental gas trimmers.
Sounds like you are enjoying your trimmer. They do have many different models, but I have found them all to be powerful and very useful. Here are some more detailed videos that might come in handy. Depending on which one you have, here is a great video for the powerload head system ua-cam.com/video/vvZ40-TjwvM/v-deo.html and here is a video for the rapid reload head system ua-cam.com/video/UwV79MyXdY8/v-deo.html
Brilliant. Way better than the printed instructions! Thank you

Thanks for the video! Replacing my B&D trimmer with this one. Excited to try it out!
You will love it. Which model did you get?
@@AroundTheHome1 The exact one you demonstrated. The video was very helpful.
@Sue Bandy so glad to help. That trimmer should have the Powerload head. Here is a detailed video on that. ua-cam.com/video/vvZ40-TjwvM/v-deo.html And here is my EGO playlist in case you end up getting more EGO tools. ua-cam.com/play/PLxwydrM6xLuXnc39AF0vaAYvLdauVFlBU.html
Thank You! Be Blessed!
Same to you!
Great job! I was fighting with my old Ego String Trimmer. I loaded it 4 times and the line still got stuck. I watched your video on the old one and no joy. Not your fault, just it was too old. Bought ST1511T and followed your directions and all went well.
Great to hear!
Here is my full EGO playlist for many more great videos. ua-cam.com/play/PLxwydrM6xLuXnc39AF0vaAYvLdauVFlBU.html
Lots of good info, I learned how to bump it which is why I watched. I did, however, want to reach through my screen and help pull that string out😁

I was looking for a video that would take me from start to finish and cover installation, handle and string adjustment. Thanks.
Glad I could help!
Thanks so much for your demo. Of course, I watched it after I assembled mine and wondered why the handle felt odd. I then realized it must be facing "towards" the operator, lol! Being lefthanded always makes me wary when assembling products.

Awesome thx!

You're better than the actual instructions.
👍 So glad to help! Thank you for watching. Check out hundreds more of our videos at www.aroundthehome.org
Agreed!!
Great video your edger blade replacement video really came in hand recently thanks for that firstly, secondly I want to know if you can purchase / replace the blade that trims the actual line my ego weed eater is too loud and I believe the problem is that the blade is too dull , where can I purchase a replacement blade
@Greg, firstly you are welcome. So, for your second question, I don't see where you can get the cutter separately, but the whole guard with a new cutter. So here is the Amazon link for the guard that fits ST1500 and ST1500-S String Strimmers www.amazon.com/EGO-Power-Parts-2824011001-Strimmers/dp/B08KXLKXJ6?dchild=1&keywords=ego+string+trimmer+parts&qid=1630366498&sr=8-18&linkCode=ll1&tag=greatwhitenin-20&linkId=0957df87e364b0497cfc8a19d0885262&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
And here is the guard that fits ST1520, ST1520S, ST1521S and ST1524 String Trimmers www.amazon.com/EGO-Power-Parts-2825430002-Trimmers/dp/B08KXSQ3QF?dchild=1&keywords=ego+string+trimmer+parts&qid=1630366645&sr=8-19&linkCode=ll1&tag=greatwhitenin-20&linkId=b9b50e4223521002372731d7db4b432a&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
Hope that helps.
Thanks for your help. I had to come to UA-cam for the handle. I was struggling with it and was about to just give up.
Glad I could help
I just bought one, and a friend and I both tried it out, and we both came to the conclusion that it appears to be weaker in power than our old Black and Decker electrically operated trimmer, which could cut through twigs and weeds with ease, but was awkward to operate at the end of a long power cord in our crowded yard. That’s why we purchased a battery powered machine, but are these intrinsically weaker than the electrically operated ones?
Great review!!! Thanks for the rotating handle tip. Too bad you didn't mention anything about a shoulder strap.
Well shoulder strap is an accessory, doesn't come with it. Here is a more in depth video for the powerload head ua-cam.com/video/vvZ40-TjwvM/v-deo.html
Great Video. Any idea how to replace the bracket that folds the trimmer in half? Ours cracked, I got the replacement part - but no idea how to fix it...TIA
I'm sorry, I do not. I didn't even know that part was available.
Thanks 😊
No problem 😊 Here is our webpage with everything EGO. www.aroundthehome.org/ego-power-plus.html
Thanks for the great video, but I do have a question. Your video skipped over the part I had a question on. When I took my tape off there was not a metal blade, just a black plastic piece. Not sure if this is covering a blade or the plastic is what cuts the line?
Well there should be a metal blade there. I can't imagine it supposed to cut with plastic notch. Now, the notch should be holding the blade, that's why there is tape to cover the metal edge. Sounds like yours might be missing that.
@@AroundTheHome1 Thanks so much for the speedy reply. On closer inspection I realized that not all of the tape had been removed. Also it is black which makes it a bit hard to see. Okay off to the weeds I go :)
Nice
Thank you and thanks for watching. Here is our webpage with everything EGO www.aroundthehome.org/ego-power-plus.html
Would the trimmer head that you demonstrated on an earlier video with the arrows and deep grove in the head fit my ST1520s?
Today, I did find my string loaded easier only took me 33 minutes today if I twisted the string as I was working with it. It still took me many tries doing this. I have fought this for almost 3 years.
Copy and pasted my response to your other comment. It will not have the lines because that is only on the older Rapid Reload heads, not the Powerload heads. And the older Rapid Reload heads were the ones that were hard to load. You say that you always use the .095 line, but is the end straight. Because coming out the other side is where it will hang up if it is going to. These heads are not interchangeable. Also, I have almost never heard of so much trouble with loading these heads. It sounds like you are already mad at it before you start and that is what is leading to the frustration and complication. I did have one other viewer that had the same amount of trouble and I did a video with the Rapid Reload head. This ended up helping them so I hope that it can help you. ua-cam.com/video/8WeSIdWYqXc/v-deo.html
How did you cut off the access string toward the end? You did something but I did not see what? Also, i use this with the 7ah battery that came with the mower, but this bad-boy gets really heavy after a few minutes. I'm going to have to get a smaller battery for the string trimmer.
So many good questions tonight! Thanks for your comments / questions. First, to cut off the extra string just rev the string trimmer up and there is a blade on the guard that cuts off the extra. Just make sure it is pointed away from you. Here is more of a comprehensive how to use video. ua-cam.com/video/TPqZn_qTmkY/v-deo.html
And you are using that 7.5 Ah battery in the trimmer. Man, you could trim an entire neighborhood with that monster. Yes, that has to be heavy. I would suggest one of the smaller ones as well. I actually have been moving away from the 2.5 and use mainly the 5.0, but that is really up to you. Do you have the blower yet??
“It’s easier when it’s not so long” 😂😂
At the string end where the motor is located is the housing metal or plastic? Or is there a plastic cover over the metal housing that holds the motor? The other ego string trimmers the housing that holds the motor is all metal and not sure if they made this cheaper by making it all plastic and question how durable or strong it will be if it is all plastic. thanks for the great video.
I'm pretty sure that it is still metal. I gave this one away to my daughter and son in law. Even though I don't have in front of me, I know that nothing stuck out as cheap on this model.
Had my son-in-law check it out and yes, it is still metal.
@@AroundTheHome1 Thank you very much for looking into my question. I have been to 5 different stores and nobody has this model on display. Thanks again for all of the time and effort.
No problem. For more info on EGO check out our webpage with all our EGO videos and resources. www.aroundthehome.org/ego-power-plus.html
It never hurts to search around the website while you are there..
Just brought one today but it's too dark to cut. . It doesn't have the low and high speed . I hope it still do some good too the yard
Which model do you have? Here is our webpage with everything EGO on it. www.aroundthehome.org/ego-power-plus.html
Love your demonstration. I needed it since I’ve Never used a trimmer before. was told this trimmer was great and easy to use. What I don’t understand is you turn it on and can use it or do you have to bump to start trimming?
@Katie Terakami, thank you for your comment. I think I need to make a full step by step video on how to use these. But, for your question, you just turn it on to use it. You only bump the head to feed more line out. And that only works while it is on and spinning. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching. Check out hundreds more of our videos at www.aroundthehome.org
I have EGO model ST1520S It is now 3 years old. I watched your latest video on string trimmers. Your model had marks on the bottom of the trimer head to line up.
I have fought with getting this string in for 3 years now. Love my trimmer when It is working.
I called EGO today, they suggested AH1520 new trimmer head.
Looking on line at this model I do not see any marks on it for lining it up. I was unable to find the part locally to look at it. Everything needed to be ordered.
Can you offer a suggestion if this part number may have the marks on it?
I spent over one hour today trying to get the line to feed in. I am doing it correctly. Please help.
Thanks for your question. The 1520S should have the powerload head. Please tell me if I am mistaken for your trimmer. If it is, it should not have the lines on it. That is for the older design of the Rapid Reload heads. Here is my best video for the powerload head and I hope that it helps you out. ua-cam.com/video/vvZ40-TjwvM/v-deo.html
@@AroundTheHome1 Just as suspected it took me 3 days to be able to find where I left my message. It does have the power head and is model 1520S It is almost 3 years old. I really love my power string trimmer but really hate battling with trying to get the line in.
I just watched your video and my line does not go in as easy as your video. All week It has taking me over an hour to get the line in. I have always used twisted .095. This is a work horse of a line, love it.
The manufacture suggest5ed a replacement head AH1520 from Amazon.
I do not see any lines or arrow looking at Amazon photo of this head. Is this head any different from the one I have?
It will not have the lines because that is only on the older Rapid Reload heads, not the Powerload heads. And the older Rapid Reload heads were the ones that were hard to load. You say that you always use the .095 line, but is the end straight. Because coming out the other side is where it will hang up if it is going to. These heads are not interchangeable.

How to load the string with a non power load model ? Good vid btw..
This is the older Rapid Reload head loading video. ua-cam.com/video/8WeSIdWYqXc/v-deo.html
can this use the 0.8 line i have a ton of that
The .080 line will work in the EGO trimmers, but I find the .095 twisted line to be the very best for not getting jammed and just working right.
I just bought an EGO string trimmer and read the manual, it doesnt say what to do about the blue tape covering the string cutting blade on underside of the guard. its very hard to remove and I would assume it needs to be removed. Nobody seems to reference it at all.. I guess if the string never cuts I will know it needs to come off. Glaring omission on EGO's manual writers behalf.
The blue tape is not a big deal. Peel off what you can, the string will rip off the rest.
Which one of the ego string trimmer is the most powerful?
I find them to all be the same power at the head. They just have different options to make one better for you. Here is our webpage with everything EGO www.aroundthehome.org/ego-power-plus.html
Thanks for the review. My biggest question about the new unit is the handle. Does it fit all the old models?
You want to know if you can take the handle off of this one and stick it on one of the others?
@@AroundTheHome1 yes please
Yes, yes it does. Not a question that I thought I would get asked about. But I took it off and put it onto the standard trimmer with the aluminum pole and rapid reload head and also the newer carbon fiber pole with powerload head. It fits just the same on all three.
@@AroundTheHome1 Excellent! Now I am going to ask the authorized repair centre to have the SKU# setup for this part so I can order it for the carbon fibre trimmer and Multi-tool. Thank you for so much for finding this out for me.
So glad to help! Thank you for watching. Check out hundreds more of our videos at www.aroundthehome.org
I got one of these today and after a few minutes the line jammed and needed to be removed, and then the Powerload feature did not work when trying to load the new line. It was pretty disappointing given the high expectations reviews on this trimmer have set... I'm waiting on a replacement head from EGO but that really doesn't seem like the issue, given nothing appears to be wrong with the current one.
I'm sorry to hear that. Sounds like something was defective. I have had mine for a couple of years now with zero problems. I have also bought one for my daughter and no problems there. I hope that it is just the head. Here is my video on replacing the head. ua-cam.com/video/RoTYJrLqf7U/v-deo.html
@@AroundTheHome1 Thanks, yeah I've seen your video on this, and I plan to just follow that when I'm replacing the head. Your videos are pretty helpful/descriptive, thanks for making all of these.
Ultimately it does just seem like I might have had bad luck with this one, so if they can't fix it I'll probably just look into exchanging it for another one.
Well hopefully this fixes it up right away.
What model ego feeder is this???? This video just says “new” Ego trimmer. There’s several. Which one is this, please???
I'm sorry, I have fixed that. It is the ST1511T. Which model do you have?
Say Hello to my little friend. Now Iwill laugh everytime I whack my weeds ! Tony Montana
Glad you liked that. Here is a more detailed video on loading / unjamming the head. Here is for the PowerLoad ua-cam.com/video/vvZ40-TjwvM/v-deo.html and for the Rapid Reload ua-cam.com/video/UwV79MyXdY8/v-deo.html

What is your favorite ego trimmer?
That is a good question. It would probably be this one. www.amazon.com/EGO-56-Volt-Lithium-Ion/dp/B07BBW8P9Y?cv_ct_cx=ego+string+trimmer&dchild=1&keywords=ego+string+trimmer&pd_rd_i=B07BBW8P9Y&pd_rd_r=b422e2f7-538c-4e9c-a4a1-c1e1ce3edef3&pd_rd_w=ryvzy&pd_rd_wg=Vbrxh&pf_rd_p=0ba9ec09-8e28-4b22-8e68-77e0fdc8b488&pf_rd_r=BTEP3DR2Q9YHDQTAQV6B&qid=1626352737&sr=1-2-509f3c19-353d-402d-9e8e-afdddb9f06c9&linkCode=ll1&tag=greatwhitenin-20&linkId=c0c22ea632833ff8a48c01fe8311bc9c&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
The EGO Trimmer with powerload and carbon fiber shaft.
Can you slow the rpm to a near 0 before the motor stops?
Nope. First time I have been asked that question.
@@AroundTheHome1 Thats the problem with those battery operated trimmers. You cant slow them down enough to go around delicate stuff or a chain link fence to keep from breaking the string. I hate my Milwaukee trimmer because of that. Their only variable speed down to a certain certain rpm (like 4500) and then they cut off.
Ok, so I checked the manual to be specific. First the main two trimmers that I have the No-Load speed is listed at 4000~5800 RPM. Now personally I find no problem with the lower speed to get around delicate items, and I have plenty. The new trimmer in this video with the low high switch is listed on Low 3000-4800 and high 4500-5800. I don't know if that helps. I have the manuals on my website that you can download and check all the specs for yourself. Here is that link. www.aroundthehome.org/ego-mowers-and-string-trimmers.html
@@AroundTheHome1 thanks for checking. I was asking because I'm going to see if I can find an Ego demo so I can see how slow it starts up. My Milwaukee's slowest start up speed even on the turtle mode is to fast for my taste in some circumstances. I wonder why they can't make the variable speed slower like a gas trimmer.
Well, that I don't know exactly. I don't know what kind of a gear box, if any, that the trimmer has. So it might have to do with not enough torque if it ran slower. But that is just a guess.
What brand trimmer LINE do you like best and is it twisted / 0.95?
Normally use Shakespeare line and yes it is twisted and .095 So glad to help! Thank you for watching. This is what I have been using for a while and like it. www.amazon.com/Shakespeare-125-ft-0-095-Spooled-Trimmer/dp/B083WPXSY4?hvadid=416694498187&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17296797138810056687&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9023750&hvtargid=pla-896117427067&psc=1&adgrpid=97671768847&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=416694498187&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17296797138810056687&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9023750&hvtargid=pla-896117427067&linkCode=ll1&tag=greatwhitenin-20&linkId=d739aa9f40a8cb287e98c61a5749ecf0&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl Check out hundreds more of our videos at www.aroundthehome.org
@@AroundTheHome1 This is a couple years old but his video leaves little doubt about which trimmer line was best of those he tested (Maxpower Twisted). ua-cam.com/video/zau6ClOk8s0/v-deo.html
Which model is this?
This one. egopowerplus.com/15-inch-string-trimmer-powerload-aluminum-st1511t/
You need to get you a Darwin's Grip for that string trimmer.
Makes trimming much relaxing!
The motor is in the head, not the back. lol
Can I charge that battery on my mower charger? I mean isn't that the same battery?
Yes, all the EGO batteries and chargers are interchangeable. I believe that the charger you are referring to is the quick charger, when the ones in my video are the standard charger.
@@AroundTheHome1 Okay so I will be able to charge it with my quick charger that came with my mower? I am planning on buying an Ego weed eater probably at the end of this year or in the summer.
@@AroundTheHome1 I have another question does Ego have any drills?
I know of no problem with that. If you get string trimmer that is not a bare tool and has a battery of it's own, which I do recommend, it will also have another charger with it as well.
@@AroundTheHome1 Okay thanks. I will let you know when I get the weed eater.
I love EGO products, but still can't master replacing the string.
You will get the hang of it, I'm sure. Thank you for watching. Check out hundreds more of our videos at www.aroundthehome.org
I can’t for the living hell of me get the hex screw to screw in. Literally step #1
