Operating Instructions
In the event of an emergency, shut off
the engine immediately move the slide
control / stop switch to 0 or STOP.
To reduce the risk of eye and other injury
always wear proper eye protection (see
the chapter on "Proper Clothing") and
ensure that bystanders are at least
50 feet (15 m) away. To reduce the risk
of damage to property, also maintain this
distance from such objects as vehicles
or windows. Any coworkers who must be
in the restricted area should also wear
goggles or protective glasses.
Stop the engine and cutting tool
immediately if you are approached.
Warning!
Inhalation of certain dusts, especially
organic dusts such as mold or pollen,
can cause susceptible persons to have
an allergic or asthmatic reaction. Sub-
stantial or repeated inhalation of dust
and other airborne contaminants, in par-
ticular those with a smaller particle size,
may cause respiratory or other ill-
nesses. Control dust at the source
where possible. Use good work prac-
tices, such as operating the unit so that
the wind or operating process directs
any dust raised by the power tool away
from the operator. Follow the recom-
mendations of EPA / OSHA / NIOSH
and occupational and trade associa-
tions with respect to dust ("particulate
matter".) When the inhalation of dust
cannot be substantially controlled, i.e.,
kept at or near the ambient (back-
ground) level, the operator and any
bystanders should wear a respirator
approved by NIOSH / MSHA for the type
of dust encountered.
Warning!
Do not operate your power tool using
the starting throttle lock, as you do not
have control of the engine speed.
Warning!
The rotating cutting attachment may
fling foreign objects directly or by rico-
chet a great distance.
Never use metal
blades on this trim-
mer. Only mowing
heads are
authorized.
Warning!
Before you start work,
examine the area for
stones, glass, fence wire,
metal, trash or other solid
objects. The cutting
attachment could throw
objects of this kind.
15m (50ft)
Warning!
This trimmer is normally to be used at
ground level with the cutting attachment
parallel to the ground. Use of a trimmer
above ground level or with the cutting
attachment perpendicular to the ground
may increase the risk of injury, since the
cutting attachment is more fully exposed
and the power tool may be more difficult
to control.
Warning!
During cutting, check the tightness and
the condition of the cutting attachment
at regular short intervals with the engine
and attachment stopped. If the behavior
of the attachment changes during use,
stop the engine immediately, wait until
the cutting attachment stops, and check
the nut securing the attachment for
tightness and the head for cracks, wear
and damage.
Warning!
A loose head may vibrate, crack, break
or come off the trimmer, which may
result in serious or fatal injury. Make
sure that the cutting attachment is prop-
erly tightened. Use the wrench supplied
or one of sufficient length to obtain the
proper torque. If the head loosens after
being properly tightened, stop work
immediately. The retaining nut may be
worn or damaged and should be
replaced. If the head continues to
loosen, see your STIHL dealer. Never
use a trimmer with a loose cutting
attachment.
