Warning!
This trimmer/brushcutter is normally to
be used at ground level with the cutting
attachment parallel to the ground. Use
of a trimmer/brushcutter above ground
level or with the cutting attachment per-
pendicular 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.
To reduce the risk of unintentional rota-
tion of the cutting attachment and injury,
always shut off the engine and remove
the spark plug boot before replacing the
cutting attachment. To reduce the risk of
injury, always shut off the engine before
adjusting the length of the nylon line on
manually adjustable mowing heads.
replaced. If the blade or head continues
to loosen, see your STIHL dealer. Never
use a trimmer/brushcutter with a loose
cutting attachment.
Warning!
Replace a cracked, damaged or worn-
out head or a cracked, bent, warped,
damaged, dull or worn out blade imme-
diately, even if damage is limited to
superficial cracks. Such attachments
may shatter at high speed and cause
serious or fatal injury.
Warning!
The gearbox becomes hot during oper-
ation. To reduce the risk of burn injury,
do not touch the gear housing when it is
hot.
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 blade or head for
cracks, wear and damage.
Warning!
Warning!
When using rigid blades, avoid cutting
close to fences, sides of buildings, tree
trunks, stones or other such objects that
could cause the power tool to kick out or
could cause damage to the blade.
STIHL recommends use of the nylon
line heads for such jobs. In addition, be
alert to an increased possibility of rico-
chets in such situations.
The muffler and other parts of the
engine (e.g. fins of the cylinder, spark
plug) become hot during operation and
remain hot for a while after stopping the
engine. To reduce risk of burns do not
touch the muffler and other parts while
they are hot.
