Storing The Machine - Stihl TS 350 Manual

:DUQLQJ
Never test the ignition system with
ignition wire terminal removed from
spark plug or with unseated spark plug,
since uncontained sparking may cause
a fire.
:DUQLQJ
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury,
use only spark plugs authorized by
STIHL. Always press spark plug boot
snugly onto spark plug terminal of the
proper size. (Note: If terminal has
detachable SAE adapter nut, it must be
attached.) A loose connection between
spark plug terminal and ignition wire
connector in the boot may create arcing
that could ignite combustible fumes and
cause a fire. Keep spark plug clean, and
make sure ignition lead is in good
condition.
:DUQLQJ
Do not operate your cut-off machine if
the muffler is damaged, missing or modi-
fied. An improperly maintained muffler
will increase the risk of fire and hearing
loss.
Never touch a hot muffler or spill fuel or
other flammable liquid over it. Burn inju-
ries or fire will result. If your muffler was
equipped with a spark-arresting screen
to reduce the risk of fire (e. g. in the USA,
Canada and Australia), never operate

your cut-off machine if the screen is
missing or damaged.
For any maintenance please refer to the
maintenance chart DQG WR WKH ZDUUDQW\
VWDWHPHQW near the end of this manual.
Store spare wheels on a flat surface in a
dry place preferably at a constant

Do not store a cut-off machine with a
wheel mounted on the machine.

•
Drain and clean the fuel tank.
•

•
Thoroughly clean the machine -
pay special attention to the
