Warning!
The cutting tool must be properly
tightened and in safe operating
condition. Inspect for loose parts (nuts,
screws, etc.) and for cracked, bent,
warped or damaged blades. Regularly
check the condition and tightness of the
cutter blades – with the engine stopped!
Replace damaged cutter blades before
using the power tool. Always keep
blades sharp.
To reduce the risk of injury from blade
contact, be absolutely sure that the
cutting tool 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 blades on the cutting tool.
Always check your power tool for proper
condition and operation before starting,
particularly the throttle trigger, throttle
trigger interlock, stop switch and cutting
tool. The throttle trigger (if applicable)
must move freely and always spring
back to the idle position. Never attempt
to modify the controls or safety devices.

Warning!
Your power tool is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when
starting.
STIHL recommends that you always
spray the cutter blades with STIHL resin
solvent before starting work – with the
engine stopped! You can obtain this
protective spray from your dealer. Apply
generously.
Never use a power tool that is damaged
or not properly maintained.

To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, do not attempt to “drop start”
your power tool.

securely mounted on the spark plug – a
loose boot may cause arcing that could

fire.
