Use the brushcutter like a scythe (sweep
it to the right and left) at ground level
when cutting grass and thinning young
stands.
To cut wild growth and scrub, lower the
brush knife down onto the growth to
achieve a shredding effect – always
keep the cutting attachment below hip
level during this process.
Exercise extreme caution when using
this method of cutting. The higher the
cutting attachment is off the ground, the
greater the risk of injury from cuttings
being thrown sideways.
Warning! Improper use of a brush knife
may cause it to crack, chip or shatter –
risk of injury from thrown parts.
To reduce the risk of injury it is essential
to take the following precautions:
–
Avoid contact with stones, rocks,
pieces of metal and other solid
foreign objects.
–
Never cut wood or shrubs with a
stem diameter of more than 2 cm –
use a circular saw blade for such
work.
–
Inspect the brush knife at regular
short intervals for signs of damage.
Do not continue working with a
damaged brush knife.
–
Resharpen the brush knife regularly
and whenever it has dulled
noticeably, and have it balanced if
necessary (STIHL recommends a
STIHL servicing dealer).

tough, matted grass and scrub.

being thrown sideways.
Warning! Improper use may damage the

To reduce the risk of injury it is essential
to take the following precautions:
–

Suitable for cutting shrubs and trees with
a maximum stem diameter of 7 cm.
Before starting the cut, accelerate the
engine up to full throttle. Perform cut
with uniform pressure.
Use circular saw blades only with a
matching limit stop of the correct
diameter.
