Warning!
Operate and start your power tool only
outdoors in a well ventilated area.
Operate it under good visibility and
daylight conditions only. Work carefully.
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.
To reduce the risk of personal injury from
loss of control or contact with the
running working tool, do not use a power
tool with incorrect idle adjustment. At
correct idle speed, the working tool
should not move. For directions on how
to adjust idle speed, see the appropriate
section of your instruction manual. If you
cannot set the correct idle speed, have
your STIHL dealer check your power
tool and make proper adjustments and
repairs.

Never modify your muffler. The muffler
could be damaged and cause an
increase in heat radiation or sparks,
thereby increasing the risk of fire and
burn injury. You may also permanently
damage the engine. Have your muffler

servicing dealer only.
Always hold the unit firmly with both
hands on the handles while you are
working. Wrap your fingers and thumbs
around the handles.

Warning!
Do not operate your power tool using the

In the event of an emergency, switch off
the engine immediately – move the slide

Your right hand should grip the rear
handle. This also applies to left-handers.
