Allow only persons who understand this

To receive maximum performance and

precautions, starting on page 3, before
using your hedge trimmer.
Contact your STIHL dealer or the STIHL

Warning!
Because a hedge trimmer is a high-

precautions must be observed to reduce
the risk of personal injury.
Careless or improper use may cause
serious or even fatal injury.
STIHL's philosophy is to continually
improve all of its products. As a result,
engineering changes and improve-
ments are made from time to time. If the
operating characteristics or the appear-
ance of your hedge trimmer differs from
those described in this manual, please
contact your STIHL dealer for
information and assistance.
