Always shut off the engine before refueling.
Do not fuel a hot engine – fuel may spill and
cause a fire.
2 Safety Precautions and Working Techniques English
0458-455-0121-D 3
Always remove the power tool from your back
and put it on the ground before refueling. Fuel
the machine only when it is standing on the
ground.
Open the fuel cap carefully to allow any pressure
build-up in the tank to release slowly and avoid
fuel spillage.
Only refuel the machine in a well ventilated
place. If you spill fuel, wipe the machine immedi‐
ately – if fuel gets on your clothing, change
immediately.
Check for fuel leakage! Never start
the engine if fuel has been spilled or
is leaking – Fatal burns may result!
Fuel cap
Never use a tool to open or close the screw-type
fuel cap. This could damage the cap and cause
fuel to leak out.
After fueling, tighten down the screw-
type fuel cap as securely as possible.
2.7 Before starting
Check that your machine is properly assembled
and in good condition – refer to appropriate
chapters in the instruction manual:
–Check the fuel system for leaks, especially the
visible parts, e. g., fuel cap, hose connections,
manual fuel pump (only in machines with a
manual fuel pump). In case of leakage and
damage, do not start the engine – risk of fire!
Have the machine serviced by a dealer before
using it
–Throttle trigger must move freely and spring
back by itself to the idle position
–The setting lever must move easily to STOP or
†
–The blower tubes must be properly assembled
–Keep the handles dry and clean – free from oil
and dirt – this is important for safe control of
the machine
–Check that the spark plug boot is secure – a
loose boot may cause sparking that could
ignite combustible fumes and cause a fire!
–Never attempt to modify the controls or safety
devices
–Check the condition of the blower housing
–Check condition of harness straps and replace
damaged or worn straps
Wear of the blower housing (cracks, nicks, chips)
may result in an increased risk of injury from
thrown foreign objects. If the blower housing is
damaged, consult your dealer – STIHL recom‐
mends you contact a STIHL servicing dealer
To reduce the risk of accidents and personal
injury, do not operate your power tool if it is not
properly assembled and in good condition!
For the case of emergency: Practice quickly
releasing the shoulder straps and taking the unit
off your back.
2.8 Starting the engine
Start the engine at least 3 meters from the fuel‐
ing spot, outdoors only.
Your power tool is designed to be operated by
one person only. Do not allow other persons in
the work area – even when starting.
Do not drop start your machine – the correct
starting procedure is described in the User Man‐
ual.
Place the machine on level ground only, ensure
that you have a secure footing and hold the
machine securely.
As soon as the engine starts, the increasing air
flow may eject objects (e.g. stones).
2.9 While working
In the event of impending danger or in an emer‐
gency, switch off the engine immediately by mov‐
ing the setting lever to STOP or †.
To reduce the risk of injury from
thrown objects, do not allow any other
persons within 15 meters of your own
position.
This distance must also be maintained in relation
to objects (vehicles, window panes) – risk of
property damage!
Do not direct the air blast towards
bystanders or animals since the air
flow can blow small objects at great
speed – risk of injury.
When blow-sweeping (in open terrain and in gar‐
dens), look out for small animals to prevent
endangering them.
Never leave a running machine unattended.
Use caution with slippery surfaces, water, snow,
ice,
on slopes, on uneven ground - Danger of slip‐
ping!
English 2 Safety Precautions and Working Techniques
4 0458-455-0121-D
Watch out for obstacles: Be careful of refuse,
tree stumps, roots and ditches which could
cause you to trip or stumble
Do not work on a ladder or in unstable locations.
Be particularly alert and cautious when wearing
hearing protection because your ability to hear
warnings (shouts, alarms, etc.) is restricted.
Work calmly and carefully – in daylight conditions
and only when visibility is good. Proceed with
caution, do not put others in danger.
Take breaks when you start getting tired or feel‐
ing fatigue – risk of accidents!
Mufflers with catalytic converters can become
especially hot.
Your power tool produces toxic
exhaust fumes as soon as the engine
is running. These gases may be odor‐
less and invisible and may contain
unburned hydrocarbons and ben‐
zene. Never run the engine indoors or
in poorly ventilated locations, even if
your model is equipped with a cata‐
lytic converter.
To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury from
breathing toxic fumes, ensure proper ventilation
when working in trenches, hollows or other con‐
fined locations.
Stop work immediately if you start suffering from
nausea, headaches, impaired vision (e.g. your
field of vision gets smaller), impaired hearing,
dizziness, or impaired concentration – these
symptoms may possibly be the result of too-high
exhaust gas concentration – Risk of accidents!
To reduce the risk of fire, do not smoke while
operating or standing near your power tool. Com‐
bustible fuel vapor may escape from the fuel sys‐
tem.
Always wear a dust mask if dust is generated.
Operate your power tool so that it produces a
minimum of noise and emissions – do not run the
engine unnecessarily, accelerate the engine only
when working.
After work, place the machine on a level, non-
flammable surface. Do not place the machine
near easily flammable materials (e.g. wood
chips, bark, dry grass, fuel) – risk of fire!
If the machine was exposed to a load 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".
Check in particular that the fuel system has no
leaks and the safety equipment is fully operative.
Do not continue operating your power tool if it is
damaged. In case of doubt, contact a dealer.
2.10 Using the blower
0009BA001 KN
The unit is carried as a backpack. Hold and con‐
trol the blower tube with your right hand on the
control handle.
Work only slowly, moving in a forwards direction
– always observe the discharge area of the
blower tube – do not move backwards – risk of
tripping!
Always shut off the engine before taking the
machine off your back.
2.11 Working Technique
To minimize blowing time, use a rake and broom
to loosen dirt particles before you start blowing.
–If necessary, dampen the surface to be
cleaned in order to avoid creating too much
dust.
–Do not blow particles in the direction of
bystanders, in particular in the direction of chil‐
dren, pets, open windows or freshly washed
vehicles. Take special care in such situations.
–Remove the blow-swept debris in rubbish bins
– do not blow it onto the neighbor's land.
–Operate your power tool at reasonable times
only – not early in the morning, late at night or
during midday rest periods when people could
be disturbed. Observe local rest periods.
–Operate blowers at the lowest engine speed
necessary to accomplish the task.
–Check your blower before starting work. Pay
special attention to the muffler, air intakes and
air filter.
2.12 Vibrations
Prolonged use of the power tool may result in
vibration-induced circulation problems in the
hands (whitefinger disease).
2 Safety Precautions and Working Techniques English
0458-455-0121-D 5
No general recommendation can be given for the
length of usage because it depends on several
factors.
The period of usage is prolonged by:
–Keeping your hands warm
–Work breaks
The period of usage is shortened by:
–Any personal tendency to suffer from poor cir‐
culation (symptoms: frequently cold fingers,
itching).
–Low outside temperatures.
–Gripping force (a tight grip hinders circulation).
Continual and regular users should monitor
closely the condition of their hands and fingers. If
any of the above symptoms appear (e.g. tingling
sensation in fingers), seek medical advice.
2.13 Maintenance and Repairs
Service the machine regularly. Do not attempt
any maintenance or repair work not described in
the instruction manual. Have all other work per‐
formed by a servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends that you have servicing and
repair work carried out exclusively by an author‐
ized STIHL servicing dealer. STIHL dealers are
regularly given the opportunity to attend training
courses and are supplied with the necessary
technical information.
Only use high-quality replacement parts in order
to avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the
machine. If you have any questions in this
respect, consult a servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine STIHL
replacement parts. They are specifically
designed to match your model and meet your
performance requirements.
To reduce the risk of injury, always shut off the
engine before carrying out any maintenance or
repairs or cleaning the machine. – Exception:
Carburetor and idle speed adjustments.
Do not turn the engine over on the starter with
the spark plug boot or spark plug removed since
there is otherwise a risk of fire from uncontained
sparking.
Do not service or store your machine near open
flames.
Check the fuel filler cap for leaks at regular inter‐
vals.
Use only a spark plug of the type approved by
STIHL and make sure it is in good condition –
see "Specifications".
Inspect the ignition lead (insulation in good con‐
dition, secure connection).
Check the condition of the muffler.
To reduce the risk of fire and damage to hearing,
do not operate your machine if the muffler is
damaged or missing.
Do not touch a hot muffler since burn injury will
result.
Vibration behavior is influenced by the condition
of the AV elements – check the AV elements at
regular intervals.
Shut off the engine before rectifying problems.
