4 Safety Precautions
► In poor light conditions and poor visibility:
Do not operate the blower.
► Do not use the blower on your own.
► Do not work above shoulder height.
► Watch out for obstacles.
► Stand safely on the ground and keep your
balance. If you have to work at a height:
use a lift bucket or secure scaffolding.
► If you experience signs of fatigue: take a
break.
► Blow in direction of the wind.
■ Objects may be thrown into the air at high
speed while working. This can result in injuries
to persons and animals and damage to prop‐
erty.
► Do not direct air blast towards per‐
sons, pets and objects.
■ If the blower starts behaving differently or in
an unusual way while operating, the blower
may be in an unsafe condition. This can result
in serious injuries and damage to property.
► Stop working, remove the battery and con‐
sult a STIHL servicing dealer.
■ The blower may cause vibrations in operation.
► Take breaks.
► If signs of poor circulation appear: consult a
doctor.
■ The blower may become electrostatically
charged due to flying dust. Under certain envi‐
ronmental conditions (e.g. dry environment),
the blower may discharge suddenly resulting
in sparks. Sparks can cause fires and explo‐
sions in a flammable or explosive environ‐
ment. This can result in serious injuries or
death and damage to property.
► Do not work in a flammable environment or
in an explosive environment.

WARNING
■ A damaged or defective charger may produce
an unusual smell or emit smoke during the
charging process. This may result in personal
injuries and damage to property.
► Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet.
■ The charger can overheat and cause a fire if
heat dissipation is inadequate. This can result
in serious or fatal injuries and damage to prop‐
erty.

– The mains plug of the connecting cable or
extension cord is damaged.
– The socket is not properly installed.
DANGER
■ Contact with live parts may result in electric
shock. This may result in serious or fatal injury
to the user.
► Make sure that the connecting cable, exten‐
sion cord and their mains plugs are undam‐
aged.
If the connecting cable or the extension
cord is damaged:
► Do not touch the damaged area.

cable cross-section,
WARNING
■ Overvoltage can occur in the charger if the line
voltage or frequency are incorrect during
charging. The charger may be damaged.
► Make sure that the mains voltage and the
mains frequency of the power supply match
the data on the rating plate of the charger.
■ If the charger is connected to a power strip,
electrical components may be overloaded dur‐
ing the charging process. The components
may overheat and cause a fire. Persons may
