Transporting the Power Tool
Warning!
Fuel your power tool in well-ventilated
areas, outdoors. Always shut off the
engine and allow it to cool before refu-
eling. Gasoline vapor pressure may
build up inside the fuel tank depending
on the fuel used, the weather conditions
and the tank venting system.
Always check your power tool for proper
condition and operation before starting,
particularly the throttle trigger, throttle
trigger interlock and stop switch. The
throttle trigger must move freely. Never
attempt to modify the controls or safety
devices.
When transporting your power tool in a
vehicle, properly secure it to prevent
turnover, fuel spillage and damage to
the unit.
In order to reduce the risk of burns and
other personal injury from escaping gas
vapor and fumes, remove the fuel filler
cap on your power tool carefully so as to
allow any pressure build-up in the tank
to release slowly. Never remove the fuel
filler cap while the engine is running.

Warning!
Your STIHL power tool uses an oil-
gasoline mixture for fuel (see the
chapter on "Fuel" of your instruction
manual).

and ignited by a spark or

at least 10 feet (3 m) from the fueling
spot before starting the engine. Wipe off

loose boot may cause arcing that could
ignite combustible fumes and cause a
fire.
property damage. Use
extreme caution when
handling gasoline or fuel
mix. Do not smoke or

Warning!
Check for fuel leakage while refueling
and during operation. If fuel leakage is
found, do not start or run the engine until
the leak is fixed and any spilled fuel has
been wiped away. Take care not to get
fuel on your clothing. If this happens,
change your clothing immediately.
Keep the handles clean and dry at all
times; it is particularly important to keep
them free of moisture, pitch, oil, grease
or resin in order for you to maintain a
firm grip and properly control your
power tool.
escape from the fuel
system.
Starting
Unit vibrations can cause
an improperly tightened
fuel filler cap to loosen or
come off and spill quanti-
ties of fuel. In order to
reduce the risk of fuel
spillage and fire, tighten
the fuel filler cap by hand
as securely as possible.
Warning!
Start the engine at least 10 feet
(3
meters) from the fueling spot, out-
doors only.
