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.
Only attachments supplied by STIHL or
expressly approved by STIHL for use
with the specific STIHL KombiEngine
model are authorized. Although certain
unauthorized attachments are useable
with STIHL power tools, their use may,
in fact, be extremely dangerous.
If this 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. Check in particular that
the fuel system is tight (no leaks) and
that the controls and safety devices are
working properly. Do not continue
operating this machine if it is damaged.
In case of doubt, have it checked by your
STIHL servicing dealer.
THE USE OF THE POWER TOOL
Transporting the Power Tool
WARNING
Always switch off the engine and make
sure the working tool has stopped before
putting a power tool down. When
transporting your power tool in a vehicle,
properly secure it to prevent turnover,
fuel spillage and damage to the power
tool.

Fuel
Your STIHL power tool uses an oil-
gasoline mixture for fuel (see the "Fuel"
chapter in this instruction manual).
WARNING
Gasoline is an extremely
flammable fuel. If spilled
and ignited by a spark or
other ignition source, it
can cause fire and seri-
ous burn injury or
property damage. Use
extreme caution when
handling gasoline or fuel
mix. Do not smoke or
bring any fire or flame
near the fuel or the power
tool. Note that combus-
tible fuel vapor may
escape from the fuel
system.
Fueling Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire and serious
personal injury, always place the power
tool on the ground before attempting to
fuel the machine.
WARNING
Pick a Safe Location
To reduce the risk of fire and explosion,
fuel your power tool in a well-ventillated
area, outdoors away from flames, pilot
lights, heaters, electric motors, and
other sources of ignition. Vapors can be
ignited by a spark or flame many feet
away. Select bare ground for fueling and
move at least 10 feet (3 m) from the
fueling spot before starting the engine.
Wipe off any spilled fuel before starting
your power tool. Take care not to get fuel
on your clothing. If this happens, change
your clothing immediately.
Allow the Power Tool to Cool Before
Removing the Fuel Cap
WARNING
Gasoline vapor pressure may build up
inside the fuel tank. The amount of
pressure depends on a number of
factors such as the fuel used, altitude
and temperature. To reduce the risk of
burns and other personal injury from
escaping gas, vapor and fumes, always
shut off the engine and allow it to cool
before removing the fuel cap.
The engine is air cooled. When it is shut
off, cooling air is no longer drawn across
the cylinder and engine temperatures
will rise for several minutes before
starting to cool. In hot environments,
cooling will take longer. To reduce the
risk of burns and other personal injury
from escaping gas, vapor and fumes,
allow the power tool to cool. If you need
to refuel before completing a job, turn off
the machine and allow the engine to cool
before opening the fuel tank.
