Warning!
Do not operate your power tool if the
muffler is damaged, missing or modified.
An improperly maintained muffler will
increase the risk of fire and hearing loss.
If your muffler was equipped with a
spark-arresting screen to reduce the risk
of fire, never operate your power tool if
the screen is missing or damaged.
Remember that the risk of forest fires is
greater in hot or dry weather.

Warning!
Never repair damaged cutting attach-
ments by welding, straightening or
modifying the shape. This may cause
parts of the cutting attachment to come
off and result in serious or fatal injuries.
Use only identical STIHL replacement
parts for maintenance and repair. Use of
non-STIHL parts may cause serious or
fatal injury.
!Warning!
Never test the ignition system with the
spark plug boot removed from the spark
plug or with a removed spark plug, since
uncontained sparking may cause a fire.
Strictly follow the maintenance and
repair instructions in the appropriate
sections of your instruction manual.
Keep blades sharp. Tighten all nuts,
bolts and screws, except the carburetor
adjustment screws, after each use.
!
Warning!
Store the power tool in a dry and high or
locked location out of reach of children.
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the cutting attachment is stopped
before doing any maintenance or repair
work or cleaning the power tool. Do not
attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in your instruction manual.
Have such work performed by your
STIHL servicing dealer only.
Before storing for longer than a few
days, always empty the fuel tank. See
chapter "Storing the Machine" in the
instruction manual.
