Arrows on the deflector (as seen from
the underside) show the correct
direction of rotation of the cutting
attachment. When viewed from above,
however, the cutting attachment rotates
counterclockwise.
Adjust the hand grip and harness (if you
are wearing one) to suit your size before
starting work. The machine should be
properly balanced as specified in your
instruction manual for proper control and
less fatigue in operation. To be better
prepared in case of an emergency,
practise releasing the unit from the
harness as quickly as possible.
Starting
Start the engine at least 10 feet (3 m)
from the fueling spot, outdoors only.
For specific starting instructions, see the
appropriate section of your manual.
Place the power tool on firm ground or
other solid surface in an open area.
Maintain good balance and secure
footing.
Once the engine has started,
immediately blip the throttle trigger,
which should release the starting throttle
and allow the engine to slow down to
idle.
With the engine running only at idle,
attach the power tool to the spring hook
of your harness if you are using one (see
appropriate chapter of the instruction
manual.)
Important Adjustments
If you cannot set the correct idle speed,
have your STIHL dealer check your
power tool and make proper
adjustments and repairs.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from blade or
line contact, be absolutely sure that the
cutting attachment is clear of you and all
other obstructions and objects, includ-
ing the ground, because when the
engine starts at starting-throttle, engine
speed will be fast enough for the clutch
to engage and move the cutting
attachment.
Warning!
Your power tool is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when
starting.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, do not attempt to "drop start"
your power tool.
Warning!
When you pull the starter grip, do not
wrap the starter rope around your hand.
Do not let the grip snap back, but guide
the starter rope to rewind it properly.
Failure to follow this procedure may
result in injury to your hand or fingers
and may damage the starter
mechanism.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of personal injury
from loss of control or contact with the
running cutting attachment, do not use
your unit with incorrect idle adjustment.
At correct idle speed, the cutting attach-
ment should not move. For directions on
how to adjust idle speed, see the appro-
priate section of your instruction
manual.
