THE POWER TOOL
For illustrations and definitions of the
power tool parts see the chapter on
"Main Parts."
Warning!
Never modify this power tool in any way,
since this may increase the risk of per-
sonal injury. Only attachments supplied
by STIHL or expressly approved by
STIHL for use with the specific STIHL
model are authorized. Although certain
unauthorized attachments are useable
with STIHL power tools, their use may,
in fact, be extremely dangerous.
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
machine checked by your STIHL
servicing dealer.
Battery
Warning!
Risk of fire, explosion
and/or burns, including
chemical burns. Do not
disassemble, crush,
heat above 212 °F
(100 °C), expose to fire
or incinerate. Never expose the battery
to microwaves or high pressures.
HSA 65
Do not place the battery on or near fires,
stoves or in other high-temperature
locations. Do not place the battery in
direct sunlight or store it inside a vehicle
in hot weather. Doing so may cause the
battery to generate heat, rupture or
ignite. Using the batteries in this manner
may also result in a loss of performance
and a shortened life expectancy.
In case of fire: Stay clear of any vapors
or gases generated, taking wind
direction into account. If possible without
danger, remove battery from the vicinity
of the fire. In principle, cooling the
battery or extinguishing the fire with
water is possible. It is preferable to
extinguish the fire with a multipurpose
dry chemical fire extinguisher. As for any
fire, evacuate the area and fight the fire
from a safe distance. Once the fire has
been extinguished, the area should be
monitored (fire watch) in case of a flare-
up, until the battery has cooled
sufficiently. Restrict access to the area
until completion of clean-up. Do not
touch the burnt battery or any spilled
liquids. Use inert absorbent to absorb
spilled liquids.
Use and store the bat-
tery only within a
temperature range from
14 °F (-10 °C) and no
more than 122 °F
(+ 50 °C). Protect the bat-
tery from direct sunlight.
Warning!
Use STIHL batteries only with STIHL
power tools and charge them only with
STIHL chargers. Replace battery with
STIHL AP battery only. Use only original
STIHL rechargeable batteries.
Charge the battery before use.
Protect from rain – do not
immerse in fluids.
Warning!
Do not open, drop, hit or damage bat-
tery. Never insert objects into the
battery's cooling slots, since they may
damage the battery. The battery con-
tains safety features and devices which,
if damaged, may cause the battery to
generate heat, rupture or ignite. Never
use or charge a defective, damaged,
cracked or deformed battery.
Immediately discontinue use of the
battery if, while using, charging or
storing, it emits an unusual smell, feels
hot or appears abnormal in any other
way.
Warning!
Fluid may leak from the battery if it is
damaged or is not used properly – avoid
contact with the skin! Leaking battery
fluid can cause skin irritation and chem-
ical burns. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately rinse thoroughly
with mild soap and water. If fluid gets
into your eye(s), do not rub your eye(s)
and rinse water over the open eye(s) for
15 minutes at least. Also seek medical
attention immediately.
