operate the unit if it is not properly
assembled and in good condition.
Do not operate your power tool if any of
its components are damaged or not
properly mounted.
Risk of injury from con-
tact with rotating blower
wheel. Always switch off
the motor and discon-
nect the plug from the
power supply before
removing the intake
screen, suction tube,
blower tube or elbow.

to come to a complete
standstill.
A worn blower housing (cracks, nicks,
chips) may result in an increased risk of
injury from thrown foreign objects. If the
blower housing is damaged, consult
your dealer – STIHL recommends you
contact a STIHL servicing dealer.
Never attempt to modify the controls or
the safety devices in any way.

Electrical Connection
Reduce the risk of electric shock:
Voltage and frequency of the power
–
tool (see rating plate) and the
voltage and frequency of your
power supply must be the same.
Check the connecting cord, plug
–
and extension cord for damage.
Never use damaged cords,
couplings and plugs or connecting
cords that do not comply with
regulations.
Always connect the power tool to a
–
properly installed wall outlet.
Check that the insulation of the
–
power cord, extension cord, plug
and coupling is in good condition.
Never touch the mains plug,
–
connecting cord, extension cord or
electrical connections with wet
hands.
Position the connecting and extension
cords correctly:
Check minimum cross section of
–
wires (wire gauge) – see
"Connecting to Power Supply".
To reduce the risk of stumbling,
–
position and mark the connecting
cord so that it cannot be damaged
or endanger others.
Using unsuitable extension cords
–
can be dangerous. Use only
extension cords approved for
outdoor use which are labeled as
such and have the appropriate wire
gauge.
The plug and coupling of the
–
extension cord must be water-proof
and must never be immersed in
water.
Do not chafe on edges, pointed or
–
sharp objects
Do not squeeze through gaps in
–
doors or windows
If cords are twisted – unplug the
–
power tool and straighten them out
Always unwind the extension cord
–
completely from the cable drum to
reduce the risk of fire from
overheating.
Holding and Controlling the Power Tool
Your blower is designed for one-handed
operation. It can be carried by the
control handle in either the right or left
hand.
Always hold the power tool firmly in your
hand.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, operate the
unit only with a properly mounted blower
