!Warning!
Trimmer noise may
damage your hearing.
Wear sound barriers
(ear plugs or ear mufflers)
to protect your hearing.
Continual and regular
users should have their hearing checked
regularly.
Protect your hands with
gloves when handling the
trimmer and the cutting
tool. Heavy-duty, nonslip
gloves improve your grip
and protect your hands.
Clothing must be sturdy
and snug-fitting, but allow
complete freedom of
movement. Avoid loose-
fitting jackets, scarfs,
neckties, jewelry, flared or
cuffed pants, unconfined longhair or
anything that could become caught on
branches, brush or moving parts of the
unit. Wear long pants made of heavy
material to protect your legs. Do not
wear shorts, pants, sandals or go bare
foot. Secure hair so it is above shoulder
level.
Good footing is most
important in trimmer work.
Wear sturdy boots with
nonslip soles. Steel-toed
safety boots are
recommended.
Wear an approved safety
hard hat to reduce the risk
of injury to your head
when there is a danger of
head injuries.
THE TRIMMER
For illustrations and definitions of the
trimmer parts see the chapter on "Parts
and Controls".
!Warning!
Never modify a trimmer in any way. Only
attachments supplied by STIHL or
expressly approved by STIHL for use
with the specific STIHL trimmer models
are authorized. Although certain
unauthorized attachments are useable
for the STIHL trimmer, their use may, in
fact, be extremely dangerous.
!Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury to operator
from blade contact, metal blades may be
used on FS-trimmers equipped with a
bicycle, "J" handle or loop handle with
barrier bar and not on those FS- and
FE-models with a loop handle only.
Never use any
metal cutting
attachment on a
FS-model that has
a bent shaft.
