2 Guide to Using this Manual
WARNING
As more fully explained later in this manual, to reduce the
risk of personal injury, make sure your unit is equipped with
the proper handle, harness and deflector for the type of
cutting attachment you are using. Use only cutting
attachments that are specifically authorized by STIHL for
use with this power tool. Always wear proper protective
apparel and eye protection. Bystanders, especially children,
and animals should not be allowed in the work area where
the trimmer is in use.
WARNING
Use of this machine may be hazardous. If the rotating line or
blade comes in contact with your body, it will cut you. When
it comes in contact with solid foreign objects such as rocks,
glass or bits of metal, it may fling them directly or by ricochet
in the direction of bystanders or the operator. Striking such
objects could damage the cutting attachment and may
cause blades to crack, chip or break. Thrown objects,
including broken heads or blades, may result in serious or
fatal injury to the operator or bystanders. Follow the safety
precautions in this manual to reduce the risk of personal
injury.
