Caution!
Read the instruction manual before initial
use.
Fire hazard!
Never refill the tank when
the engine is running or
heated to a very high tem-
perature. Petrol is highly
flammable and produces
explosive vapours.
Danger of poisoning!
Avoid inhaling exhaust
gases. Engine exhaust
gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide as well as
other pollutants.
Danger of burns!
Do not touch hot surfaces.
Engine components, espe-
cially the muffler, can
become extremely hot.

6. Preparing the machine for
operation
6.1 Checking the oil filling level
and adding engine oil
The engine is designed for
commercially available 4-stroke engine
oils.
STIHL recommends using the following
engine oils:
– SAE 30
– SAE 10W-30
The oil grade must be matched to the
ambient temperature where the STIHL
gardening power tool will be used:
Operation at temperatures above 4 °C:
SAE 30
Operation at temperatures below 4 °C:
SAE 10W-30
Oil capacity: 0,5 litres
Avoid damage to the machine!
The engine is delivered without
engine oil. It must therefore be filled
with engine oil before being used
for the first time.
6.1) Exceeding or falling below the
permissible oil filling level can result
in damage to the engine.
● Park the STIHL gardening power tool
on a flat surface and stop the engine.
● Unscrew oil dipstick (1) and wipe clean.
● Insert oil dipstick (1) in the filler neck –
2
do not screw in.
Then remove the oil dipstick again and
read off the oil filling level on measuring
scale (2).
● If necessary, add engine oil until it
reaches the maximum oil filling level.
Use a suitable funnel.
● Screw in oil dipstick (1) again.

6.2 Refilling the tank

The engine is approved for
unleaded petrol. Unleaded petrol
burns with fewer residues, reduces
deposits on the spark plug and extends the
service life of the exhaust system.
Requirements for the fuel:
– Fresh, clean and unleaded petrol
– Rating of at least 85 octane
– Maximum ethanol content 10% (E10).
