Stihl SR 340 Instruction Manual page 14

!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury,
keep the area around the muffler clean.
Remove excess lubricant and all debris
such as pine needles, branches or
leaves. Let the engine cool down sitting
on concrete, metal, bare ground or solid
wood (e.g. the trunk of a felled tree)
away from any combustible substances.
!
Warning!
Never modify your muffler. The muffler
could be damaged and cause an
increase in heat radiation or sparks,
thereby increasing the risk of fire and
burn injury. You may also permanently
damage the engine. Have your muffler
serviced and repaired by your STIHL
servicing dealer only.

After Finishing Work
Always wash thoroughly with soap and
water after spraying or handling
chemicals. Shower immediately, and
wash all protective clothing separately
from other items. Follow any additional
recommendations of the chemical
manufacturer.
Always clean dust and dirt off the power
tool.
!
Warning!
Empty, rinse and clean container and
assembly after each use. This helps to
prevent the solution from crystallizing,
which could later cause clogging and
chemical damage to the unit. In addition;
residual chemicals may have
undesirable effects during subsequent
spraying with a different type of chemical
(e.g., residual herbicide may damage or
kill plants being sprayed with a
pesticide).
Disposal of contaminated rinse should
be in accordance with applicable
ordinances. Observe the precautionary
instructions of the chemical
manufacturer.
Do not store the mistblower with spray
solution in the container.
