For periods of three months or more:
: Drain and clean the machine in a
well ventilated place.
: Run the engine until the carburetor
is dry – this helps to prevent the
carburetor diaphragms sticking
together.
: Remove, clean and inspect the
cutting blade.
: Thoroughly clean the machine,
paying special attention to the
cylinder fins and air filter!
: Store the machine in a dry and safe
place, out of the reach of children
and other unauthorized users.
: Check grease level regularly, about
every 25 hours of operation.
: Unscrew the filler plug (1).
If no grease can be seen on the
inside of the filler plug,
screw the tube (2) of STIHL gear
lubricant for brushcutters – see
chapter "Special Accessories" – into
the filler hole.
: Squeeze 1/4 oz (5 to 10 g) grease
into the gear housing.
Do not completely fill the gear
housing with grease.
: Refit the filler plug and tighten it
down firmly.
Have worn depth wheel replaced by
your STIHL dealer.
: The end of the thread on screw (1)
is caulked to ensure that the
wingnut (2) does not work loose
and be lost.
A very high torque has to be applied to
remove the wingnut from the screw. If
the parts are then reassembled, the
captive function is no longer
guaranteed. In such a case the screw
and wingnut should be replaced by your
STIHL dealer.
