THE POWER TOOL
For illustrations and definitions of the
power tool parts see the chapter on
"Main Parts."
If this tool is subjected to unusually high
loads for which it was not designed (e.g.
heavy impact or a fall), always check
that it is in good condition before
continuing work. Check in particular that
the fuel system is tight (no leaks) and
that the controls and safety devices are
working properly. Do not continue
operating this machine if it is damaged.
In case of doubt, have it checked by your
STIHL servicing dealer.
THE USE OF THE POWER TOOL
Transporting the Power Tool
It may be carried only in a horizontal
position. Grip the shaft in a manner that
the machine is balanced horizontally.
Keep the hot muffler away from your
body and the cutting attachment behind
you.
Fuel
Your STIHL power tool uses an oil-
gasoline mixture for fuel (see the
chapter on "Fuel" of your instruction
manual.)
Always wear gloves
when handling the
machine and metal
blades. Heavy-duty, non-
slip gloves improve your
grip and help to protect
your hands.
Clothing must be sturdy
and snug-fitting, but allow
complete freedom of
movement. Wear long
pants made of heavy
material to help protect
your legs. Do not wear
shorts, sandals or go
barefoot.
Avoid loose-fitting jack-
ets, scarfs, neckties,
jewelry, flared or cuffed
pants, unconfined long
hair or anything that
could become caught on
branches, brush or the
moving parts of the unit.
Secure hair so it is above
shoulder level.
Good footing is very
important. Wear sturdy
boots with nonslip soles.
Steel-toed safety boots
are recommended.
Warning!
Never modify this power tool in any way.
Only attachments supplied by STIHL
and expressly approved by STIHL for
use with the specific STIHL model are
authorized. Although certain unauthor-
ized attachments are useable with
STIHL power tools, their use may, in
fact, be extremely dangerous. For the
cutting attachments authorized by
STIHL for your unit, see the chapter
"Approved Combinations of Cutting
Attachment, Deflector, Handle and Har-
ness" in the instruction manual or the
STIHL "Cutting Attachments, Parts &
Accessories" catalog.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control and line contact, never carry or
transport your power tool with the cut-
ting attachment moving.
Warning!
Always shut off the engine and make
sure the cutting attachment has stopped
before putting a trimmer down. When
transporting it in a vehicle, properly
secure it to prevent turnover, fuel spill-
age and damage to the unit.
