Fitting the Starter Cover
: Push the upper mounting boss (2)
under the shroud (4) –
line up the tank (3)and push the
lower part of cover onto the tank.
: Insert and tighten down the housing
screws (1).
For periods of about 3 months or longer
: Drain and clean the fuel tank in a
well ventilated area.
: Dispose fuel properly in accordance
with local environmental
requirements.
: Run engine until carburetor is dry –
this helps prevent carburetor
diaphragms sticking together.
: Remove, clean and inspect the
cutting tool.
: Thoroughly clean the machine – pay
special attention to the cylinder fins
and air filter.
: Store the machine in a dry, high or
locked location – out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
: Use a file – see “Special
Accessories” – to sharpen cutting
tools. In case of more serious wear
or nicks: Resharpen with a grinder
or have work done by STIHL dealer.
: Resharpen frequently, take away as
little material as possible – two or
three strokes of the file are usually
enough.
To avoid out-of-balance
: After resharpening about 5 times,
have blade checked on STIHL
balancer – see “Special
Accessories” – and rebalanced as
necessary.
