Maintenance, Repair and Storing
of the Cut-Off Machine
Never operate a cut-off machine that is
damaged, improperly adjusted or not
completely or securely assembled.
Follow the maintenance and repair
instructions in the appropriate section of
your owner's manual.
!
Warning!
Use only STIHL replacement parts for
maintenance and repair. Use of parts
manufactured by others may cause
serious or fatal injury.
!
Warning!
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the wheel is stopped before doing
any maintenance or repair work or
cleaning the cut-off machine. Do not
attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in your owner's manual.
Have such work performed at your
STIHL service shop only.
Clean grinding dust after finishing work.
Empty the fuel tank before storing for
longer than a few days.
TS 400
Store fuel only in correctly labeled and
approved containers. Avoid direct skin
contact and do not inhale the gas
vapors.
Keep the handles dry, clean and free of
oil and fuel.
Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws except
the carburetor adjustment screws after
each use.
!
Warning!
Never test the ignition system with
ignition wire terminal removed from
spark plug or with unseated spark plug,
since uncontained sparking may cause
a fire.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury,
use only spark plugs authorized by
STIHL. 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
attached.) A loose connection between
spark plug terminal and ignition wire
connector in the boot may create arcing
that could ignite combustible fumes and
cause a fire. Keep spark plug clean, and
make sure ignition lead is in good
condition.
!
Warning!
Do not operate your cut-off machine if
the muffler is damaged, missing or
modified. An improperly maintained
muffler will increase the risk of fire and
hearing loss. Never touch a hot muffler
or spill fuel or other flammable liquid
over it. Burn injuries or fire will result. If
your muffler was equipped with a spark-
arresting screen to reduce the risk of fire
(e. g. in the USA, Canada and Australia),
never operate your cut-off machine if the
screen is missing or damaged.
Store wheels on a flat surface in a dry
place preferably at a constant
temperature where there is not risk of
frost. Do not store a cut-off machine with
a wheel mounted on the machine. Store
cut-off machine in a high or locked
place, away from children.
