During operation
If there is imminent danger or in an
emergency, immediately stop the
engine – set the slide control / master
lever /stop switch to STOPor0.
Check for correct idling so that the
abrasive wheel is no longer driven when
the throttle trigger is released and
comes to a complete halt.
Check and/or correct the idle setting
regularly. Have the machine repaired by
a STIHL servicing dealer if the cutting
wheel continues to turn nevertheless.
Keep the working area clear – bear in
mind obstacles, holes and pits.
Take care on ice, water, snow, on slopes
or uneven ground, etc. – risk of slipping!
Do not work while standing on a ladder –
or in unstable places – not above your
shoulder height – not with one hand only
– risk of accident!
Ensure you always have a firm and
secure footing.
Never work alone – always stay in
earshot of other persons who can help in
an emergency.
Keep everyone else away from the
working area – maintain a sufficient
distance from other people to protect
them from noise and flying objects.
Pay increased attention and take
greater care when wearing ear
defenders – the perception of sounds
indicating potential danger (shouts,
audible warnings, etc.) is restricted.
Take a break before it is too late.
Work calmly and carefully – in daylight
conditions and only when visibility is
good. Work with particular care, do not
endanger others.
Ensure proper ventilation when working
in trenches, hollows or similar locations
– risk of fatal injury from breathing toxic
fumes!
Stop working immediately if you feel
sick, have a headache, distorted vision
(for example, shrinking field of vision),
hearing impairment, dizziness, fading
powers of concentration – such
symptoms may be caused, among other
things, by excessive exhaust
concentrations – risk of accident!
No smoking when working with or near
the machine - risk of fire!
If the power tool has been exposed to
stress due to improper use (e.g. forceful
impact by striking or dropping), inspect
the machine to make sure it is in full
working order before continuing work, in
every case – see also "Before start-up".
Check the fuel system for leaks and
make sure the safety devices are
working properly. Do not continue
operating a machine which is damaged.
In case of doubt, have the unit checked
by your servicing dealer.
Do not work with the throttle trigger in
the starting throttle position – in that
position of the throttle trigger, the engine
speed cannot be controlled.
Never touch a rotating abrasive wheel
with your hand or any other part of your
body.
Check the work area. Avoid danger due
to damage to pipes and electric power
lines.
The machine must not be used in the
vicinity of flammable substances and
combustible gases.
Do not cut into pipes, metal tanks or
other containers unless you are
absolutely sure that they do not contain
any volatile or flammable substances.
Never leave the machine unattended
with the engine running. Stop the engine
before leaving the machine unattended
(e.g. for breaks).
Before putting the cut-off machine down
on the ground:
– Switch off the engine
– Wait until the abrasive wheel has
come to a standstill or brake the
abrasive wheel until it comes to a
standstill by carefully touching a
hard surface (e.g., concrete slab)
Your power tool produces
toxic exhaust fumes as
soon as the engine starts
running. These gases
may be colorless and
odorless and may contain
unburnt hydrocarbons
and benzene. Never use
the machine indoors or in
poorly ventilated areas –
even if your model is
equipped with a catalytic
converter.
