Stihl TS 410 Instruction Manual page 5

When not using the machine, it must be
laid down in such a way that it does not
endanger anyone. Ensure that the
machine cannot be used without
authorization.
The user is responsible for accidents or
risks involving third parties or their
property.
Do not lend or rent your power tool
without the User Manual. Be sure that
anyone using it understands the
information contained in this manual.
The use of machines that emit noise
may be limited to certain hours of the
day as specified by national and/or
regional or local regulations.
Anyone operating the machine must be
well rested, in good physical health and
in good mental condition.
If you have any condition that might be
aggravated by strenuous work, check
with your doctor before operating a
machine.
If you have a pacemaker: The ignition
system of your machine produces an
electromagnetic field of very low
intensity. This field may interfere with
some pacemakers. STIHL recommends
that persons with pacemakers consult
their physician and the pacemaker
manufacturer to reduce any health risk.
Anyone who has consumed alcohol or
drugs or medicines affecting their ability
to react must not operate a power tool.
Postpone the work if the weather is bad
(snow, ice, wind) – higher risk of
accidents!
The machine may only be used for
cutting. It is not suitable for cutting wood
or wooden objects.
TS 410, TS 420
Asbestos dust is extremely toxic - the
machine must therefore never be used
to cut asbestos!
Other uses are not permitted and may
lead to accidents or damage to the
machine.
Never attempt to modify your power tool
in any way since this may increase the
risk of personal injury. STIHL excludes
all liability for personal injury and
damage to property caused while using
unauthorized attachments.
Only use abrasive wheels or
accessories which have been approved
by STIHL for this machine or which are
technically equivalent. If you have any
questions in this respect, consult your
dealer. Only use high-quality abrasive
wheels and attachments. in order to
avoid the risk of accidents and damage
to the machine.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine
STIHL abrasive wheels and
accessories. They are specifically
designed to match the product and meet
your performance requirements.
Do not use a high-pressure washer to
clean the power tool. The solid jet of
water may damage parts of the unit.
Do not spray the power tool with water.
Never use circular saw
blades, carbide, rescue
or wood cutting attach-
ments or saws of any
kind – these may cause
fatal injuries!Instead of
uniformly removing parti-
cles as when cutting with
an abrasive wheel, the
teeth of a circular saw
blade may snag in the
material. This causes the
machine to react in a
highly aggressive manner
with uncontrolled and
extremely dangerous
kickback.
Clothing and equipment
Wear proper protective clothing and
equipment.
Clothing must be sturdy
but allow complete free-
dom of movement. Wear
close-fitting clothes such
as a boiler suit, not a
work coat.
When cutting steel, always wear clothing
made of barely flammable material (e.g.,
leather or cotton with flame-retardant
finish) – no man made fibers – risk of fire
due to flying sparks!
Clothing must be free from flammable
deposits (chips, fuel, oil, etc.).
Do not wear clothes that may be caught
by moving parts – no scarf, no tie, no
jewelry. Tie up and confine long hair
above your shoulders.
