THE USE OF THE
BRUSHCUTTER
Transporting the brushcutter
!
Warning!
Always turn off the engine and make
sure the cutting attachment has stop-
ped before putting a brushcutter down.
When transporting your brushcutter in a
vehicle, properly secure it to prevent
turnover, fuel spillage and damage to the
brushcutter. Keep metal cutting tools
covered with the transport guard
(optional accessory).
Preparation for the use of the
brushcutter
Adjust carrying harness and hand grip to
suit your size before starting work. The
machine should be properly balanced as
specified in your owner's manual for
proper control and less fatigue in
operation.
Always check your brushcutter for
proper condition and operation before
starting, particularly the throttle trigger,
throttle trigger interlock (if applicable),
stopswitch, cutting tool, deflector and
harness.

A
B
Arrows on the deflector (A) and stop (B)
show the correct direction of rotation of
the cutting tool.
The throttle trigger must move freely and
always spring back to the idle position.
The cutting tool must be properly
tightened and in safe operating
condition. Inspect for loose parts (nuts,
screws, etc.) and for cracked, bent,
warped or damaged blades.
Fueling
Your STIHL brushcutter uses an oil-
gasoline mixture for fuel (see the chap-
ter on "Fuel" of your owner's manual).
!
Warning!
Gasoline is an extremely
flammable fuel. If spilled
and ignited by a spark or
other ignition source, it
can cause fire and serious
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 brushcutter.
Fueling Instructions
!
Warning!
Fuel your brushcutter in well-ventilated
areas, outdoors. Always shut off the
engine and allow it to cool before
refueling. Gasoline vapor pressure may
build up inside the fuel tank depending
on the fuel used, the weather conditions
and the tank venting system.
