Warning!
Prolonged use of a trimmer (or other
machines) exposing the operator to
vibrations may produce whitefinger
disease (Raynaud's phenomenon) or
carpal tunnel syndrome.
These conditions reduce the hand's
ability to feel and regulate temperature,
produce numbness and burning
sensations and may cause nerve and
circulation damage and tissue necrosis.
All factors which contribute to white-
finger disease are not known, but cold
weather, smoking and diseases or
physical conditions that affect blood
vessels and blood transport, as well as
high vibration levels and long periods of
exposure to vibration are mentioned as
factors in the development of whitefinger
disease. In order to reduce the risk of
whitefinger disease and carpal tunnel
syndrome, please note the following:
:
Most STIHL power tools are
available with an anti-vibration
("AV") system designed to reduce
the transmission of vibrations
created by the engine to the
operator's hands. An AV system is
recommended for those persons
using power tools on a regular or
sustained basis.

:
Wear gloves and keep your hands
warm.
:
Keep the AV system well
maintained. A trimmer with loose
components or with damaged or
worn AV buffers will tend to have
higher vibration levels.
:
Maintain a firm grip at all times, but
do not squeeze the handles with
constant, excessive pressures and
take frequent breaks.
All the above mentioned precautions do
not guarantee that you will not sustain
whitefinger disease or carpal tunnel
syndrome. Therefore continual and
regular users should monitor closely the
condition of their hands and fingers. If
any of the above symptoms appear,
seek medical advice immediately.
!
Warning!
The ignition system of the STIHL unit
produces an electromagnetic field of a
very low intensity. This field may
interfere with some pacemakers. To
reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury,
persons with pacemaker should consult
their physician and the pacemaker
manufacturer before operating this tool.
Proper Clothing
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury, the operator
should wear proper protective apparel.
!
Warning!
The deflector provided with your trimmer
may not protect the operator from all
foreign objects (gravel, glass, wire, etc.)
thrown by the rotating cutting tool.
Thrown objects may also ricochet and
strike the operator.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury
to your eyes never
operate a trimmer unless
wearing goggles or
properly fitted safety
glasses with adequate top
and side protection complying with ANSI
Z 87.1 (or your applicable national
standard).
To reduce the risk of injury to your face
STIHL recommends that you also wear
a face shield or face screen over your
goggles or safety glasses.
