Using The Fsa 45 For Edging - Stihl FSA 45 Notice D'emploi

16 During Operation
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury, never work with the
trimmer in the rain or in wet or damp conditions, @ 5.5.
Always wear proper clothing and protective apparel,
including proper eye protection, when operating your
trimmer, @ 5.4. Keep bystanders at least 50 ft. (15 m) away
from the work area, @ 5.7.4. Work carefully and maintain
proper control of the trimmer, @ 5.7.2.
The trimmer is designed for two-handed operation.
► Swing the trimmer back and forth carefully in a controlled
arc parallel to the ground.
► Move forward slowly, keeping two hands on the trimmer at
all times.
When trimming, a bump guard (1) limits the cutting range of
the mowing line and helps prevent unwanted damage to
vegetation in certain circumstances. Always remove the
activation key before mounting or adjusting the bump guard.
If the trimmer is used or stored at ambient temperatures
above 86 °F (30 °C), its runtime and performance may be
reduced.
Runtime and cutting performance depend on a number of
factors, including ambient temperatures, the type of grass
being cut, the age and condition of the integrated battery
and the type of cutting attachment being used.

When mounted with nylon trimmer line, runtime is
approximately half of the runtime available when mounted
with PolyCut 2-2 polymer blades. To optimize runtime,
STIHL recommends mounting polymer blades on your
PolyCut 2-2 mowing head.
Observe all applicable laws, regulations, standards and
ordinances.
STIHL recommends keeping nylon line or polymer blades in
a water bath for at least 12 to 24 hours before use to
increase their useful life.
