Stihl TS 410 Notice D'emploi page 12

English
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
The machine must be serviced regularly.
Do not attempt any maintenance or
repair work not described in the
Instruction Manual. All other work should
be carried out by a servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends that maintenance
and repair work be carried out only by
authorized STIHL dealers. STIHL
dealers receive regular training and are
supplied with technical information.
Use only high-quality replacement parts,
in order to avoid the risk of accidents or
damage to the machine. Contact a
dealer if in doubt.

STIHL recommends the use of genuine
STIHL spare parts. Such parts have
been optimized for the machine and the
user's requirements.
Before starting any maintenance or
repair work and before cleaning the
machine, always stop the engine and
disconnect the spark plug boot – risk of
injury if the engine starts up
inadvertently! – Exception: adjustment
of carburetor and idle speed.
To reduce the risk of fire due to ignition
outside the cylinder, move the slide
control / stop switch to STOP or 0 before
turning the engine over on the starter
with the spark plug boot removed or the
spark plug unscrewed.
Do not service or store the machine near
a naked flame – risk of fire due to the
fuel.
Check fuel cap regularly for tightness.
Use only spark plugs that are in perfect
condition and have been approved by
STIHL – see Specifications.
Inspect ignition lead (insulation in good
condition, secure connection).
Check that the muffler is in perfect
working condition.
Do not use the machine if the muffler is
damaged or missing - risk of fire! –
Hearing damage!
Never touch a hot muffler – risk of burns!
Check the rubber buffers underneath
the machine - the housing must not rub
against the ground - risk of damage!
The condition of the antivibration
elements influences vibration behavior –
inspect antivibration elements
periodically.
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, STIHL may deny coverage.
For any maintenance please refer to the
maintenance chart and to the warranty
statement near the end of the instruction
manual.
