damaged or improperly mounted
cylinder housing or a
damaged/deformed muffler.
Your muffler is furnished with a spark
arresting screen designed to reduce the
risk of fire from the emission of hot
particles. Never operate your unit with a
missing or damaged spark arresting
screen. If your gas/oil mix ratio is correct
(i.e., not too rich), this screen will
normally stay clean as a result of the
heat from the muffler and need no
service or maintenance. If you
experience loss of performance and you
suspect a clogged screen, have your
muffler maintained by a STIHL servicing
dealer. Some state or federal laws or
regulations may require a properly
maintained spark arrestor for certain
uses. See the "Maintenance, Repair and
Storing" section of these Safety
Precautions. Remember that the risk of
a brush or forest fire is greater in hot or
dry conditions.
After Finishing Work
Always wash yourself thoroughly with
soap and water after spraying or
handling chemicals. Shower
immediately, and wash all protective
clothing separately from other items.
Follow any additional recommendations
of the chemical manufacturer.
Always clean dust and dirt off the power
tool.
WARNING
Empty, rinse and clean container and
assembly after each use. This helps to
prevent the solution from crystallizing,
which could later cause clogging and
chemical damage to the unit. In addition,
residual chemicals may have
undesirable effects during subsequent
spraying with a different type of chemical
(e.g., residual herbicide may damage or
kill plants being sprayed with a
pesticide).
Do not store the mistblower with spray
solution in the container.
Store the unit in a place secured against
unauthorized use.
MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
STORING
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of
the emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any
nonroad engine repair establishment or
individual. However, 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 in this instruction manual.
Please refer to the maintenance chart in
this instruction manual.
WARNING
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the fan 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 this instruction manual.
Have such work performed by your
STIHL servicing dealer only.
Do not clean your machine with a
pressure washer. The solid jet of water
may damage parts of the machine.
WARNING
Use the specified spark plug and make
sure it and the ignition lead are always
clean and in good condition. Always
press spark plug boot snugly onto spark
plug terminal of the proper size. (Note: If
terminal has detachable SAE adapter
nut, it must be securely attached.) A
loose connection between spark plug
terminal and the ignition wire connector
in the boot may create arcing that could
ignite combustible fumes and cause a
fire.
WARNING
Never test the ignition system with the
boot removed from the spark plug or
with a removed spark plug, since
uncontained sparking may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not operate your power tool if the
muffler is damaged, missing or modified.
An improperly maintained muffler will
increase the risk of fire and hearing loss.
Your muffler is equipped with a spark-
arresting screen to reduce the risk of
fire; never operate your power tool if the
screen is missing, damaged or clogged.
Remember that the risk of a brush or
forest fire is greater in hot or dry
weather.
