Switch off the motor, disconnect
the mains plug and ensure that
the cutting tool has come to a
complete standstill
– before remedying blockages, including
those in the discharge chute,
– if the cutting tool has hit a foreign object.
The cutting tool needs to be checked for
possible damage. The machine must
not be operated with a damaged or bent
blade shaft or motor shaft. Risk of
injury through defective parts!
– before you check, clean or carry out
work on the machine (e.g. adjusting the
cutting height, opening or adjusting the
handlebar);
– before leaving the machine unattended;
– before lifting, or carrying the machine;
– before transporting the machine.
– after hitting a foreign object or if the
machine vibrates excessively. In these
cases check the machine, in particular
the cutting unit (blade, blade shaft,
blade fastening) for damage and carry
out the necessary repairs before
restarting and working with the
machine.
Risk of injury!
Strong vibration is normally an
indication of a fault.
In particular, the machine must not
be operated with a damaged or
bent blade shaft or mowing blade.
If you do not have the appropriate
expertise, have the necessary
repairs carried out by a specialist
dealer (STIHL recommends STIHL

by this machine during the run-up period,
other devices connected to the same
circuit may be subject to interference in the
case of unfavourable power supply
conditions. In this case, appropriate steps
should be taken (e.g. connection to a
different circuit than the one used by the
affected device, or operation of the
machine using a circuit with a lower
impedance).
