After Finishing Work
Always clean dust and dirt off the power
tool – do not use any grease solvents for
this purpose.
MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
STORING
If you make a warranty claim for a
component which has not been serviced
or maintained properly or if
nonapproved replacement parts were
used, STIHL may deny coverage.
WARNING
Use only identical STIHL replacement
parts for maintenance and repair. Use of
non-STIHL parts may cause serious or
fatal injury.
Strictly follow the maintenance and
repair instructions in the appropriate
section of your instruction manual.
Please also refer to the maintenance
chart in this manual.
WARNING
Always switch off the motor, move
retaining latch to ƒ, remove the battery
and make sure that the cutting
attachment is stopped before doing any
maintenance or repair work or cleaning
the power tool. Do not attempt any
maintenance or repair work not
described in your instruction manual.
Have such work performed by your
STIHL servicing dealer only.
WARNING
Never repair damaged or broken heads.
This may cause parts of the cutting
attachment to come off and result in
serious or fatal injuries.
Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws after
each use.
Regularly check the electrical contacts
and ensure that the insulation of the
power cord and plug of the charger is in
good condition and shows no sign of
aging.
Electrical components, e.g. power cord
of charger, may only be repaired or
replaced by a qualified electrician.
Clean plastic components with a cloth.
Do not use aggressive detergents. They
may damage the plastic.
Do not spray the machine with water.
Do not clean your machine with a
pressure washer. The solid jet of water
may damage parts of the machine.
Keep the battery guides free from
foreign matter – clean as necessary.
Store the power tool in a dry, locked
location with the retaining latch on ƒ,
the battery removed and out of reach of
children.
The power tool is operated with a
rechargeable battery. Use only STIHL
chargers to recharge the battery.
Data exchange
The power tool, battery and charger
communicate with each other. The
charger charges the battery and the
battery supplies the necessary power
only if data exchange functions properly.
For this reason you should operate your
power tool only with the approved STIHL
batteries and STIHL chargers.
Always move retaining
latch to ƒ and remove
the battery from the
power tool before carry-
ing out any repairs or
maintenance work, such
as replacing the cutting
attachment. This avoids
the risk of the motor start-
ing unintentionally.
