! Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from thrown 
objects and blade contact, never 
operate your unit without the proper 
deflector for the cutting attachment 
being used. To reduce the risk of injury 
from loss of control 
and / or contact with the cutting tool, 
make sure your unit is equipped with a 
proper handle and harness for the type 
of cutting attachment being used.
! Warning! 
STIHL brushcutters with a loop handle 
without barrier bar may be used only 
with the above mentioned mowing head 
with nylon line or plastic blades. Other 
plastic or metal cutting tools, but not 
circular saw blades, may be used only 
on brushcutters with a bike handle or 
loop handle with barrier bar in order to 
reduce the risk of personal injury 
through contact with the cutting tool. To 
reduce the risk of serious injury to the 
operator or bystanders by kickout, never 
use a circular saw blade on a 
brushcutter with a loop handle. Circular 
saw blades may be used only on 
brushcutters with a bike handle.
