Only high-quality air filters should be used, to

air filters. The high quality of these parts will
ensure trouble free operation, a long service life
for the engine and extremely long filter life.
15 Engine Management
Exhaust emissions are controlled by the design
of the engine and components (e.g. ignition, tim‐
ing and valve or port timing).
16 STIHL Injection
STIHL Injection regulates the fuel quantity and
ignition timing for all operating states electroni‐
cally.
STIHL Injection stands for easy, fast starting,
constant optimum engine performance, outstand‐
ing acceleration and automatic adaptation to
changes in operating conditions.
17 Spark Arresting Screen in

In some countries, the mufflers are fitted with a
spark arresting screen.

To reduce the risk of fire caused by hot particles
escaping from the machine, never operate the
machine without a spark arresting screen, or with
the spark arresting screen damaged. Do not
modify the muffler or spark arresting screen.
NOTICE
According to the law or regulations in some
countries or federal states, certain operations
may only be carried out if a properly serviced
spark arresting screen is provided.
