Stihl MM 55 Manual De Instrucciones página 11

Warning!
The muffler and other parts of the
engine (e.g. fins of the cylinder, spark
plug) become hot during operation and
remain hot for a while after stopping the
engine. To reduce risk of burns do not
touch the muffler and other parts while
they are hot.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury,
keep the area around the muffler clean.
Remove excess lubricant and all debris
such as pine needles, branches or
leaves. Let the engine cool down sitting
in the upright position on concrete,
metal, bare ground or solid wood away
from any combustible substances.
Warning!
Never modify your muffler. The muffler
could be damaged and cause an
increase in heat radiation or sparks,
thereby increasing the risk of fire and
burn injury. You may also permanently
damage the engine. Have your muffler
serviced and repaired by your STIHL
servicing dealer only.
MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
STORING
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of
the emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any
nonroad engine repair establishment or
individual. However, if you make a
warranty claim for a component which
has not been serviced or maintained
MM 55, MM 55 C
properly or if nonapproved replacement
parts were used, STIHL may deny
coverage.
Warning!
Use only identical STIHL replacement
parts for maintenance and repair. Use of
non-STIHL parts may cause serious or
fatal injury.
Strictly follow the maintenance and
repair instructions in the appropriate
section of your MultiEngine and
MultiTool instruction manuals. Please
refer to the maintenance charts
respectively the maintenance notes in
these manuals.
Warning!
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the working tool 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 MultiEngine and
MultiTool instruction manuals. Have
such work performed by your STIHL
servicing dealer only.
Wear gloves when handling or
performing maintenance on any blade.
Warning!
Never repair damaged working tools by
welding, straightening or modifying the
shape. This may cause parts of the
working tool to come off and result in
serious or fatal injuries.
Warning!
Use the specified spark plug and make
sure it and the ignition lead are always
clean and in good condition. Always
press spark plug boot snugly onto spark
plug terminal of the proper size. (Note: If
terminal has a detachable SAE adapter
nut, it must be attached.) A loose con-
nection between spark plug boot and
the ignition wire connector in the boot
may create arcing that could ignite com-
bustible fumes and cause a fire.
Warning!
Never test the ignition system with the
ignition wire boot removed from the
spark plug or with a removed spark
plug, since uncontained sparking may
cause a fire.
Warning!
Do not operate your power tool if the
muffler is damaged, missing or modi-
fied. An improperly maintained muffler
will increase the risk of fire and hearing
loss. If your muffler was equipped with a
spark-arresting screen to reduce the
risk of fire, never operate your power
tool if the screen is missing or damaged.
Remember that the risk of forest fires is
greater in hot or dry weather.
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
may damage parts of the machine.
Store the power tool in a dry and high or
locked location out of reach of children.
