Engineering improvements
STIHL’s philosophy is to continually
improve all of its products. As a result,
engineering changes and improvements
are made from time to time. If the
operating characteristics or the
appearance of your machine differ from
those described in this manual, please
contact your STIHL dealer for
assistance.
Therefore some changes, modifications
and improvements may not be covered
in this manual.
Special safety
precautions
must be
observed when working
with the dethatcher
because it is a high-speed
power tool with rotating
tines.
It is important that you
read and understand
both
instruction manuals
(MultiEngine
and
MultiTool) before using
the unit for the first time.
Keep the manuals in a safe place for
future reference.
Non-observance of the safety
precautions in the instruction manuals
may cause serious or even fatal injury.
Always observe local safety regulations,
standards and ordinances.
If you have never used this power tool
model before: Have your STIHL dealer
show you how to operate your power
tool or attend a special course of training
in power tool operation.
Do not lend or rent your power tool
combination without the instruction
manuals. Be sure that anyone using
your power tool understands the
information contained in both manuals
(MultiEngine
and
MultiTool).
Minors should never be allowed to use a
power tool. Children, bystanders and
animals should not be allowed in the
area where a power tool is in use.
The power tool user is responsible for
avoiding injury to third parties or damage
to their property.
To operate the power tool you must be in
good physical condition and mental
health and not under the influence of any
substance (drugs, alcohol) which might
impair vision, dexterity or judgment.
Use the dethatcher only for removing
old, dried cuttings, moss, grass or root
residue from lawns. It must not be used
for any other purpose because of the
increased risk of accidents.
Only attachments supplied by STIHL or
expressly approved by STIHL for use
with your specific model are authorized.
Other attachments must not be used
because of the increased risk of
accidents.
