Inspect the hedge and work area to
avoid damaging the cutting blades:
– Remove stones, rocks, pieces of
metal and other solid objects.
– When working close to the ground,
make sure that no sand, grit or
stones get between the blades.
– Take particular care when cutting
hedges next to or against wire
fences.
To avoid the risk of electrocution, do not
touch electric power lines – never cut
through electric power lines.
To reduce the risk of fire, always clean
plant residue, chips, leaves and excess
lubricant off the motor.
When working at heights:
– Always use a lift bucket
– Never work on a ladder or in a tree
– Never work on an insecure support
If the hedge is very dusty or dirty, spray
the blades with STIHL resin solvent from
time to time during cutting. This helps
reduce blade friction as well as the
aggressive effects of sap and the build-
up of dirt particles.
The dust that occurs during operation
may be harmful to health. If dust levels
are very high, wear a suitable respirator.
Do not leave the machine outdoors in
the rain.
Take special care in slippery conditions,
on slopes or uneven ground.
Work calmly and carefully – in daylight
conditions and only when visibility is
good. Stay alert so as not to endanger
others.
Clear away fallen branches, scrub and
cuttings.
Watch out for obstacles: Roots, tree
stumps or holes which could cause you
to trip or stumble.
Be particularly alert and cautious when
wearing hearing protection because
your ability to hear warnings (shouts,
alarms, etc.) is restricted.
To reduce the risk of accidents, take a
break in good time to avoid tiredness or
exhaustion.
If your power tool is subjected to
unusually high loads for which it was not
designed (e.g. heavy impact or a fall),
always check that it is in good condition
before continuing work – see also
"Before Starting Work". Make sure the
safety devices are working properly. Do
not continue operating your power tool if
it is damaged. In case of doubt, have the
unit checked by your servicing dealer.
Before leaving the power tool
unattended: Always switch off the power
tool, set the retaining latch to ƒ and
remove the battery.
Check the cutting blades at regular short
intervals during operation or
immediately if there is a noticeable
change in cutting behavior:
– Switch off the motor, move the
retaining latch to ƒ and wait for the
cutting blades to come to a
standstill, remove the battery.
– Check condition and tightness, look
for cracks.
– Check sharpness.
To replace the cutting blades, switch off
the power tool, move the retaining latch
to ƒ and remove the battery. This
avoids the risk of injury from the motor
starting unintentionally.
After finishing work
Always clean dust and dirt off the power
tool – do not use any grease solvents for
this purpose.
Spray the blades with STIHL resin
solvent. Run the motor briefly so that the
solvent is evenly distributed.
Holding and Controlling the Power Tool
Always hold the unit firmly with both
hands on the handles. Wrap fingers and
thumbs firmly around the handles.
The drive motor is not
waterproof. Never work
with the power tool in the
rain or in wet or very
damp locations.
