Stihl FSE 60 Mode D'emploi page 35

To reduce the risk of injury, avoid
contact with the blade.
To reduce the risk of injury, always
switch off the power tool and unplug it
from the power supply before manually
adjusting the nylon line.
Using the unit with over-long nylon
cutting lines reduces the motor's
operating speed. This results in
overheating and damage to the motor.
To reduce the risk of injury, never use
wire in place of the nylon cutting line.
If your power tool is subjected to
unusually high loads for which it was not
designed (e.g. heavy impact or a fall),
always check that it is in good condition
before continuing work – see also
"Before Starting Work". Make sure the
safety devices are working properly. Do
not continue operating your power tool if
it is damaged. In case of doubt, have the
unit checked by your servicing dealer.
Before leaving the power tool
unattended: Switch off the motor and
disconnect the plug from the power
supply.
Vibrations
Prolonged use of the power tool may
result in vibration-induced circulation
problems in the hands (whitefinger
disease).
No general recommendation can be
given for the length of usage because it
depends on several factors.
FSE 60, FSE 71, FSE 81
The period of usage is prolonged by:
Hand protection (wearing warm
–
gloves)
Work breaks
–
The period of usage is shortened by:
Any personal tendency to suffer
–
from poor circulation (symptoms:
frequently cold fingers, tingling
sensations).
Low outside temperatures.
–
The force with which the handles
–
are held (a tight grip restricts
circulation).
Continual and regular users should
monitor closely the condition of their
hands and fingers. If any of the above
symptoms appear (e.g. tingling
sensation in fingers), seek medical
advice.
Maintenance and Repairs
Always switch off the machine and
disconnect the plug from the power
supply before carrying out any
maintenance work to reduce the risk of
injury from the motor starting
unintentionally.
Service the machine regularly. Do not
attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in the instruction manual.
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
STIHL replacement parts. They are
specifically designed to match your
machine model and meet your
performance requirements.
Never attempt to modify your power tool
in any way since this will increase the
risk of personal injury.
Regularly check that the insulation of the
power cord and plug is in good condition
and shows no sign of ageing
(brittleness).
Electrical components, e.g. power cord,
may only be repaired or replaced by a
qualified electrician.
Clean plastic components with a cloth.
Do not use aggressive detergents. They
may damage the plastic.
Do not spray the machine with water.
Check tightness of mounting screws on
safety devices and the cutting
attachment and retighten if necessary.
Clean cooling air inlets in motor housing
as necessary.
Store the machine is a safe and dry
place.
