Maintenance and Repairs
Service the machine regularly. Do not

not described in the KombiTool and
KombiEngine instruction manuals. Have
all other work performed by a servicing
dealer.
STIHL recommends that you have
servicing and repair work carried out
exclusively by an authorized STIHL
servicing dealer. STIHL dealers are
regularly given the opportunity to attend
training courses and are supplied with
the necessary technical information.
Only use high-quality replacement parts
in order to avoid the risk of accidents
and damage to the machine. If you have
any questions in this respect, consult a
servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine

Cutting attachments and deflectors
The arrow on the deflector shows the
direction of rotation of the blade – see
"Use".
Operate the edger only the skirt
attached to the deflector – see
"Replacing the skirt".
Handle the blade correctly – see "Use".
Optimum cutting performance: at full
throttle and with uniform feed.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine
STIHL blades – see "Special
accessories".
Only use deflectors or attachments
which have been approved by STIHL for
this machine or which are technically
equivalent.
Using the Unit
Your power edger is designed to
produce sharp contoured borders
around lawns and flower beds. It will cut
almost all types of grass, weeds and soft
green plants.
Preparations
If the work area is very dry, spray it
lightly with water: this softens the soil
and ensures that less dust is created.
Slightly damp green plants are easier to
cut.
WARNING
Clear away all obstacles and solid
objects from the work area.
