WARNING
When using your edger, avoid cutting
close to fences, sides of buildings, tree
trunks, stones or other such objects that
could cause the power tool to kick out or
could cause damage to the blade.
WARNING
If a rotating metal blade strikes a rock or
other hard object, sparks may be
created, which can ignite flammable
materials under certain circumstances.
Flammable materials can include dry
vegetation and brush, particularly when
weather conditions are hot and dry.
When there is a risk of fire or wildfire, do
not use metal blades around flammable
materials or around dry vegetation or
brush. Contact your local fire authorities
or the U.S. Forestry Service if you have
any question about whether vegetation
and weather conditions are suitable for
the use of a metal blade.
WARNING
If the blade or deflector becomes
clogged or stuck, always shut off the
engine and make sure the cutting
attachment has stopped before
cleaning. Grass, weeds, etc. should be
cleaned off the blade at regular intervals.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of unintentional
rotation of the cutting attachment and
injury, always shut off the engine before
replacing the cutting attachment.

WARNING
The gearbox becomes hot during
operation. To reduce the risk of burn
injury, do not touch the gear housing
when it is hot.
USING THE CUTTING ATTACHMENT
For an illustration of the cutting
attachment and instructions on proper
mounting see the chapter on "Replacing
the Cutting Blade" in your instruction
manual.
MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
STORING
WARNING
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the cutting attachment is stopped
before doing any maintenance or repair
work or cleaning the power tool. Do not
attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in the instruction manuals
for your basic power tool and your edger
attachment. Have such work performed
at your STIHL servicing dealer only.
WARNING
Use only identical STIHL replacement
parts for maintenance and repair. Use of
non-STIHL parts may cause serious or
fatal injury.
Wear gloves when handling or
performing maintenance on blades.
WARNING
Never repair damaged cutting
attachments by welding, straightening or
modifying the shape. This may cause
parts of the cutting attachment to come
off and result in serious or fatal injuries.
Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws,
except the carburetor adjustment
screws, after each use.
Do not clean your machine with a
pressure washer. The solid jet of water
may damage parts of the machine.
Store the power tool in a dry and high or
locked location out of reach of children.
Cutting Attachments and Deflectors
The arrow on the deflector shows the
direction of rotation of the blade – see
"Using the Unit".
Operate the edger only with the skirt
properly mounted on the deflector – see
"Replacing the Skirt".
Handle the blade with care – see "Using
the Unit".
Best cutting results: At full throttle
working at a steady pace.
