There is a risk of accident due to ejected
objects within a wide area around the
working space, so ensure there is no-
one within a 15 m radius of the tool. This
distance must also be maintained in
relation to objects (vehicles, window
panes) – risk of property damage! Even
at a distance over 15 m, danger cannot
be ruled out.
Check that the engine is properly idling
so that the cutting tool will not continue
rotating after you release the throttle
trigger.
Check and correct the idle speed setting
at regular intervals. If the cutting
attachment still rotates at idle speed,
have your dealer make proper
adjustments or repairs. STIHL
recommends you have this work done
by a STIHL servicing dealer.
Take special care in slippery conditions
– damp, snow, ice, on slopes or uneven
ground.
Watch out for obstacles: tree stumps,
roots – risk of tripping or stumbling!
Only work while standing on the ground,
never on a ladder, work platform or other
unstable surface.
Be particularly alert and cautious when
wearing hearing protection because
your ability to hear warnings (shouts,
alarms, etc.) is restricted.
Take breaks when you start getting tired
or feeling fatigue – risk of accidents!
Work calmly and carefully – in daylight
conditions and only when visibility is
good. Proceed with caution, do not put
others in danger.
To reduce the risk of serious or fatal
injury from breathing toxic fumes,
ensure proper ventilation when working
in trenches, hollows or other confined
locations.
Stop work immediately if you start
suffering from nausea, headaches,
impaired vision (e.g. your field of vision
gets smaller), impaired hearing,
dizziness, or impaired concentration –
these symptoms may possibly be the
result of too-high exhaust gas
concentration – Risk of accidents!
Operate your power tool so that it
produces a minimum of noise and
emissions – do not run the engine
unnecessarily, accelerate the engine
only when working.
To reduce the risk of fire, do not smoke
while operating or standing near your
power tool. Combustible fuel vapor may
escape from the fuel system.
Dust, fumes and smoke produced while
working may be hazardous to your
health. Wear respiratory protection in
case of heavy dust or smoke emission.
If your power tool is subjected to
unusually high loads for which it was not
designed (e.g. heavy impact or a fall),
always check that it is in good condition
before continuing work – see also
"Before Starting".
Check in particular that the fuel system
has no leaks and the safety equipment is
fully operative. Never use a power tool
that is no longer safe to operate. In case
of doubt, contact a dealer.
Be particularly careful when working on
difficult, densely grown terrain.
15m (50ft)
As soon as the engine is
running, the power
machine generates toxic
exhaust gas.As soon as
the engine is running, the
power machine gener-
ates toxic exhaust gas.
These gases may be
odorless and invisible
and may contain
unburned hydrocarbons
and benzene. Never run
the engine indoors or in
poorly ventilated loca-
tions, even if your model
is equipped with a cata-
lytic converter.
To reduce the risk
of injuryfrom
thrown objects,
never operate the
unit without the
proper deflector for
the type of cutting
attachment being
used.
Check the work site –
rocks, metal objects etc.
may be caught up and
ejected – possibly over a
distance of 15 m – risk of
injury! – They can also
damage the cutting
attachment and other
property (e. g. parking
vehicles, windows).
