the correct position.
N Twist the cap clockwise, closing it
normally – see the sections
"Closing" and "Checking for proper
closure."
N If your cap still does not tighten
properly, it may be damaged or

STIHL dealer for repair.

change-speed gearbox. Depending on
the application and the drilling tool used,
the speed can be adjusted to suit
requirements.
Knob positions
The position of the rotary knob may be
changed only when the engine is
running at idle speed – the drilling
spindle must be stationary. It may be
necessary to turn the drilling spindle
slightly before the rotary knob can be
moved to the required position.
Do not change the position of the rotary
knob while the engine is running above
idle speed – the drilling tool rotates.
