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.
Only refuel the machine in a well
ventilated place. If you spill fuel, wipe the
machine immediately – if fuel gets on
your clothing, change immediately.
Check for fuel leakage!
Never start the engine if
fuel has been spilled or is
leaking – Fatal burns may
result!
After fueling, tighten
down the screw-type fuel
cap as securely as
possible.
This helps reduce the risk of unit
vibrations causing an incorrectly
tightened 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 User
Manual:
Check the fuel system for leaks,
–
especially the visible parts, e. g.,
fuel cap, hose connections, manual
fuel pump (only in machines with a
manual fuel pump). In case of
leakage and damage, do not start
the engine – risk of fire! Have the
machine serviced by a dealer
before using it
Throttle trigger must move freely
–
and spring back by itself to the idle
position
Stop switch must move easily to 0
–
Check that the spark plug boot is
–
secure – a loose boot may cause
sparking that could ignite
combustible fumes and cause a fire!
Check condition of blower wheel
–
and blower housing – see chapter
on "Using the Blower"
A worn fan housing (cracks, nicks,
–
chips) may result in an increased
risk of injury from thrown foreign
objects
If either the blower wheel or blower
–
housing is damaged, consult your
dealer – STIHL recommends you
contact a STIHL servicing dealer
Never attempt to modify the controls
–
or safety devices
To reduce the risk of accidents and
personal injury, do not operate your
power tool if it is not properly assembled
and in good condition
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
allow other persons in the work area –
even when starting.
Do not drop-start the power tool – start
the engine as described in the user
manual.
Place the machine on level ground only,
ensure that you have a secure footing
and hold the machine securely.
As soon as the engine starts, the
increasing air flow may eject objects
(e.g. stones).
While working
Do not direct the air
blast towards bystand-
ers or animals – the
machine may eject
small objects at high
speed – risk of injury!.
In the event of impending danger or in
an emergency, switch off the engine
immediately – move the stop switch to 0
.
