Check the cutting blades at regular short
intervals during operation or
immediately if there is a noticeable
change in cutting behavior:
– Switch off the motor; wait until the
cutting blades have come to a
standstill; unplug the power cord
– Check the condition and firm seat,
watch out for fine cracks
– Ensure that the cutting blades are
sharp
To replace the cutting blades, switch off
the machine and unplug the power cord.
Risk of injury from the motor starting
unintentionally!
Always clean plant residue, chips,
leaves and excess lubricant off the
motor – risk of fire!
After finishing work
Always clean dust and dirt off the
machine – do not use any grease
solvents for this purpose.
Spray the cutting 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 (whitefinger
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
sensations).
– Low outside temperatures.
– The force with which the handles
are held (a tight grip restricts
circulation).
Continual and regular users should
monitor closely the condition of their
hands and fingers. If any of the above
symptoms appear (e.g. tingling
sensation in fingers), seek medical
advice.
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.
