After Finishing Work
Always clean dust and dirt off the
machine – do not use any grease
solvents for this purpose.
Spray the blades with STIHL resin
solvent. Run the motor briefly so that the
solvent is evenly distributed.
Vibrations
Prolonged use of the power tool may
result in vibration-induced circulation
problems in the hands ("white finger
disease").
No general recommendation can be
given for the length of usage because it
depends on several factors.
The period of usage is prolonged by:
– Hand protection (wearing warm
gloves)
– Work breaks
The period of usage is shortened by:
– Any personal tendency to suffer
from poor circulation (symptoms:
frequently cold fingers, tingling
sensation)
– Low outside temperatures
– Amount of gripping force (holding
the power tool tightly restricts
circulation)
Users who use the machine periodically
or for long periods or users who
repeatedly experience corresponding
symptoms (e.g., tingling sensation in
fingers), should undergo a medical
examination.
Maintenance and Repairs
Always switch off the machine and
disconnect the plug from the power
supply before carrying out any
maintenance work to reduce the risk of
injury from the motor starting
unintentionally.
Service the machine regularly. Do not
attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in the instruction manual.
Have all other work performed by a
servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends that you have
servicing and repair work carried out
exclusively by an authorized STIHL
servicing dealer. STIHL dealers are
regularly given the opportunity to attend
training courses and are supplied with
the necessary technical information.
Only use high-quality replacement parts
in order to avoid the risk of accidents
and damage to the machine. If you have
any questions in this respect, consult a
servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine
STIHL replacement parts. They are
specifically designed to match your
machine model and meet your
performance requirements.
Never attempt to modify your power tool
in any way since this will increase the
risk of personal injury.
Regularly check that the insulation of the
power cord and plug is in good condition
and shows no sign of ageing
(brittleness).
Electrical components, e.g. power cord,
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.
Check tightness of mounting screws on
safety devices and the cutting
attachment and retighten if necessary.
Clean cooling air inlets in motor housing
as necessary.
Store the machine is a safe and dry
place.
