English
Fueling
Gasoline is an extremely
flammable fuel. Keep
clear of naked flames. Do
not spill any fuel – do not
smoke.
Always shut off the engine before
refueling.
Do not fuel a hot engine – fuel may spill
and cause a fire.
Open the fuel cap carefully to allow any
pressure build-up in the tank to release
slowly and avoid fuel spillage.
Fuel your power tool only in well-
ventilated areas. If you spill fuel, wipe
the machine immediately – if fuel gets on
your clothing, change immediately.
Check for leakage. To
reduce the risk of serious
of fatal burn injuries, do
not start or run the engine
until leak is fixed.
After fueling, tighten
down the screw-type fuel
cap as securely as
possible.
This reduces the risk of unit vibrations
causing the fuel cap to loosen or come
off and spill quantities of fuel.

Before Starting
Check that your power tool is properly
assembled and in good condition – refer
to appropriate chapters in the instruction
manual.
Check the fuel system for leaks,
–
paying special attention to visible
parts such as the tank cap, hose
connections and the manual fuel
pump (on machines so equipped). If
there are any leaks or damage, do
not start the engine – risk of fire.
Have your machine repaired by a
servicing dealer before using it
again.
Throttle trigger must move freely
–
and spring back to the idle position
when released.
Setting lever/switch must move
–
easily to STOP or 0
Keep the handles dry and clean –
–
free from oil and dirt – for safe
control of the power tool.
The blower tubes must be properly
–
assembled.
Check that the spark plug boot is
–
secure – a loose boot may cause
arcing that could ignite combustible
fumes and cause a fire.
Check condition of blower wheel
–
and blower housing.
A worn blower housing (cracks, nicks,
chips) may result in an increased risk of
injury from thrown foreign objects. If the
blower housing is damaged, consult
your dealer – STIHL recommends you
contact a STIHL servicing dealer.

Starting the Engine
Start the engine at least 3 meters from
the fueling spot, outdoors only.
Your power tool is designed to be
operated by one person only. Do not

the engine as described in the
instruction manual.
Place the power tool on level ground,
make sure you have secure footing, hold
the power tool securely.
As soon as the engine starts, the air flow
may throw small objects (e.g. stones) in
your direction.
During Operation
In the event of impending danger or in
an emergency, switch off the engine
immediately by moving the setting lever
/ switch to STOP or 0.
Your power tool is designed to be
