Cleaning The Air Filter; If There Is A Noticeable Loss Of Engine Power - Stihl BG 55 Manual De Instrucciones

Vacuuming abrasive material (such
as grit, stone chips, etc.) causes the
fanwheel and fan housing to wear at
a rapid rate. This results in a
considerable loss of suction power.
In such a case you should contact
your STIHL dealer.
Take particular care when
vacuuming wet leaves since they
may block the fan.
Watch out for small animals when
vacuuming and blowing in open
areas and gardens. To help avoid
the risk of injuring animals, do not
run the unit at high engine speed.
