Safety Precautions and
Working Techniques
Special safety precau-
tions must be observed
when working with this
power tool.
It is important that you
read the instruction man-
ual before first use and
keep it in a safe place for
future reference. Non-
observance of the
instruction manual may
result in serious or even
fatal injury.
Observe all applicable local safety
regulations, standards and ordinances.
If you have not used this model before:
Have your dealer or other experienced
user show you how to operate your
machine or attend a special course in its
operation.
Minors should never be allowed to use
this product.
Keep bystanders, especially children,
and animals away from the work area.
When the power tool is not in use, put it
in a place where it does not endanger
others. Secure it against unauthorized
use.
The user is responsible for avoiding
injury to third parties or damage to their
property.
Do not lend or rent your unit without the
instruction manual. Be sure that anyone
using it understands the information
contained in this manual.
The use of noise emitting power tools
may be restricted to certain times by
national or local regulations.
Do not operate your unit if any of its
components are damaged. Pay special
attention to the tightness of the container
(no leaks).
Operate the sprayer only if it is complete
and properly assembled.
Do not use a pressure washer to clean
the unit. The solid jet of water may
damage parts of the unit.
Physical Condition
To operate this power tool you must be
rested, in good physical condition and
mental health. If you have any condition
that might be aggravated by strenuous
work, check with your doctor before
operating a power tool.
Persons with pacemakers only: The
ignition system of your power tool
produces an electromagnetic field of a
very low intensity. This field may
interfere with some pacemakers. To
reduce health risks, STIHL recommends
that persons with pacemakers consult
their physician and the pacemaker
manufacturer before operating this
power tool.
Do not operate the unit if you are under
the influence of any substance (drugs,
alcohol) which might impair vision,
dexterity or judgment.
