N Pull the starter rope only in the
direction specified.
N Do not pull the rope over the edge of
the guide bushing.

back, guide it back into the housing
slowly – see chapter on "Starting /

by your dealer before it breaks
completely. STIHL recommends that

carried out exclusively by an authorized
STIHL servicing dealer.
