For specific starting instructions, see the

appropriate section of your manual.

Place the power tool on firm ground or

other solid surface in an open area.

Maintain good balance and secure

footing.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury from blade

contact, be absolutely sure that the

cutting tool is clear of you and all other

obstructions and objects, including the

ground, because when the engine starts

at starting-throttle, engine speed will be

fast enough for the clutch to engage and

move the blades on the cutting tool.

Once the engine has started,

immediately blip the throttle trigger,

which should release the starting throttle

and allow the engine to slow down to

idle.

With the engine running only at idle,

attach the power tool to the spring hook

of your harness (see appropriate

chapter of this manual).

WARNING

Your power tool is a one-person

machine. Do not allow other persons in

the general work area, even when

starting.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury from loss of

control, do not attempt to "drop start"

your power tool.

WARNING

When you pull the starter grip, do not

wrap the starter rope around your hand.

Do not let the grip snap back, but guide

the starter rope to rewind it properly.

Failure to follow this procedure may

result in injury to your hand or fingers

and may damage the starter

mechanism.

Important Adjustments

WARNING

To reduce the risk of personal injury

from loss of control or contact with the

running cutting tool, do not use your unit

with incorrect idle adjustment. At correct

idle speed, the cutting tool should not

move. For directions on how to adjust

idle speed, see the appropriate section

of your instruction manual.

If you cannot set the correct idle speed,

have your STIHL dealer check your

power tool and make proper

adjustments and repairs.

During Operation

Holding and Controlling the Power Tool

Always hold the unit firmly with both

hands on the handles while you are

working.

Models with loop handle

Right hand on control handle, left hand

on loop handle on drive tube, even if you

are left-handed. Wrap your fingers and

thumbs around the handles.

Models with handle hose

Right hand on control handle, left hand

on handle hose on drive tube, even if

you are left-handed. Wrap your fingers

and thumbs around the handles.
