electric shock or other personal injury and property
damage:
– Users may carry out only the cleaning and
maintenance operations described in this manual.

maintenance or repair.
– Strictly follow the cleaning and maintenance
instructions in the appropriate sections of this
instruction manual.
– STIHL recommends that all repair work be
performed by authorized STIHL servicing dealers.
￭ Unintentional starting may result in personal injury or
property damage. To reduce the risk of personal injury
and property damage from unintentional starting:

the garden shears or carrying out any
cleaning, maintenance or repair work,

￭ The cutting blades are the only user-serviceable parts of
the garden shears. Proper maintenance will help maintain
