WARNING
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
Some STIHL power tools
are equipped with a cata-
lytic converter, which is
designed to reduce the
exhaust emissions of the
engine by a chemical
process in the muffler.
Due to this process, the
muffler does not cool
down as rapidly as con-
ventional mufflers when
the engine returns to idle
or is shut off. To reduce
the risk of fire and burn
injuries when using a cat-
alytic converter, always
set your power tool down
in the upright position and
never locate it where the
muffler is near dry brush,
grass, wood chips or
other combustible materi-
als while it is still hot.
