WARNING
If the working tool or deflector is blocked
or covered, always switch off the engine
and ensure that the tool has come to a
standstill before starting to clean it.
Grass, weeds, etc. should be cleaned off
the tool at regular intervals.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of unintentional
rotation of the working tool and injury,
always shut off the engine and remove
the spark plug boot before replacing the
soil cultivating attachment.
WARNING
The gearbox becomes hot during
operation. To reduce the risk of burn
injury, do not touch the gear housing

MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
STORING
WARNING
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the attachment is stopped before
doing any maintenance or repair work or
cleaning the power tool. Do not attempt
any maintenance or repair work not
described in your KombiEngine and
8
KombiTool instruction manuals. Have
such work performed at your STIHL
servicing dealer only.
WARNING
Use only identical STIHL replacement
parts for maintenance and repair. Use of
non-STIHL parts may cause serious or
fatal injury.
Wear gloves when handling or
performing maintenance on blades.
WARNING
Never repair damaged attachments by
welding, straightening or modifying the
shape. This may cause parts of the
attachment to come off and result in
serious or fatal injuries.
Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws,
except the carburetor adjustment
screws, after each use.
Do not clean your machine with a
pressure washer. The solid jet of water
