Starting
!
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, do not attempt to “drop start”
your power tool.
Warning!
A
Start the engine at least 10 feet
(3
meters) 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.
!
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
B
!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, including
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
mechanism.
Important Adjustments
!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
attachment should not move. For
directions on how to adjust idle speed,
see the appropriate section of your
instruction manual.
Arrows on the deflector (A) and limit stop
(B) (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.
attachment.
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.
Adjust carrying harness and hand grip 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, practice releasing the
unit from the harness as quickly as
possible.
With the engine running only at idle,
attach the power tool to the spring hook
of your harness (see appropriate
chapter of this manual).
If you cannot set the correct idle speed,
have your STIHL dealer check your
power tool and make proper
adjustments and repairs.
!
Warning!
Your power tool is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when
starting.
