English
Use only a spark plug of the type
approved by STIHL and make sure it is
in good condition – see "Specifications".
Inspect the ignition lead (insulation in
good condition, secure connection).
Check the condition of the muffler.
To reduce the risk of fire and damage to
hearing, do not operate your machine if
the muffler is damaged or missing. –
Do not touch a hot muffler since burn
injury will result.
Vibration behavior is influenced by the
condition of the AV elements – check the
AV elements at regular intervals.
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of
the emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any
nonroad engine repair establishment or
individual. However, if you make a
warranty claim for a component which
has not been serviced or maintained
properly or if nonapproved replacement
parts were used, STIHL may deny
coverage.
For any maintenance please refer to the
maintenance chart and to the warranty
statement near the end of the instruction
manual.

Harness
The harness is included with the
machine or available as a special
accessory.
Use the harness.
N
With the engine running, attach the
N
machine to the harness.
Circular saw blades must always be
used in combination with a full harness
with a quick-release system.
Circular Saw Blade
Suitable for cutting shrubs and trees with
a maximum stem diameter of 7 cm.
Before starting the cut, accelerate the
engine up to full throttle. Perform cut
with uniform pressure.
Use circular saw blades only with a
matching limit stop of the correct
diameter.
To reduce the risk of blade damage,
avoid contact with stones and the
ground. Resharpen the blade properly in
good time – dull teeth may result in the
blade cracking and shattering and
causing serious injury.
When felling, maintain a distance of at
least two tree lengths from the next
felling site.
Risk of kickout
The risk of kickout is highest in the black
area of the blade: Do not use this area of
the circular saw blade for cutting.
There is also a risk of kickout when
using the lighter shaded areas of the
blade: These areas of the blade should
only be used by experienced operators
with specialized training.
STIHL recommends that you use the
non-shaded area of the circular saw
blade. Always start the cut with this area
of the blade.
