14 Using a Battery Harness
secure the connecting cord so that it will not interfere with 
proper working technique or your ability to maintain control 
of the power tool.
WARNING
Manage the cord to prevent it from contacting the 
cutting/working attachment or catching on objects, which 
could cause you to lose balance or control of the power tool, 
resulting in serious personal injury and property damage.
WARNING
Never transport metallic, pointed or sharp objects in the 
battery bag or battery backpack. They may bridge the 
electrical contacts in the battery and cause a short circuit 
once a battery is inserted.
The AP Battery Bag with Connecting Cord can be mounted 
at the top (Illustration A) or bottom (Illustrations B and C) 
fastening points inside the STIHL Battery Backpack. Mount 
so that the connecting cord exits the backpack on the side of 
your body where the power tool will be held and controlled.
The STIHL Extra AP Battery Bag can be mounted at the 
top (Illustration D) or bottom (Illustration E) fastening points 
inside the STIHL Battery Backpack.
To attach the AP Battery Bag with Connecting Cord or Extra 
AP Battery Bag to the STIHL Battery Backpack:
► Insert the AP battery into the AP Battery Bag with 
Connecting Cord or Extra AP Battery Bag.
► Attach the AP Battery Bag with Connecting Cord or Extra 
AP Battery Bag at one of the specified locations.
► If you attach the battery bag at the top position, pull the 
vertical strap (2) through the ring (1) and close the hook 
and eye fastener to secure it.
► Repeat the process with the horizontal strap (4) and its 
ring (3).
