To reduce the risk of fire and burn
injury, use only spark plugs
authorized by STIHL. Always press
spark plug boot (
2
)
snugly onto
spark plug terminal (
1
) of the proper
size. (Note: If terminal has
detachable SAE adapter nut, it must
be attached.)
A loose connection between spark
plug boot and ignition wire
connector in the boot may create
arcing that could ignite combustible
fumes and cause a fire.
Use STIHL gear lubricant for hedge
trimmers (see “Special Accessories”) to
lubricate the blade drive gear.
After about 25 hours of operation:
:
Remove the screw plug (
1
) from the
gear housing.
:
Screw the tube of grease (
2
) into the
filler hole.
:
Roll up the end of the tube to the
next division on the scale. This
forces about 3/4oz (20g) grease into
the gearbox.
:
Refit the screw plug and tighten it
down firmly.
To help prolong the wear life of the
starter rope, observe the following
points:
:
Pull the starter rope only in the
direction specified.
:
Do not pull the rope over the edge of
the guide bushing.
:
Do not pull out the rope more than
specified since it might break.
:
Do not let the starter grip snap back,
guide it slowly into the housing.

Stopping the Engine”!
Have a damaged starter rope
replaced in good time by your
servicing dealer.
