Stihl BR 800 X Manual De Instrucciones página 9

WARNING
This unit is equipped with an ignition
system that is normally in operational
readiness. After the setting lever is used
to stop the engine, it automatically
springs back to the "on" position. If the
engine is warm, it may be possible to
start it by simply pulling the starter rope,
with no further adjustments. To reduce
the risk of injury, be particularly alert to
keep children away from the unit.
For specific starting instructions, see the
appropriate section of your manual.
Place the power tool on firm ground or
other solid surface in an open area.
Maintain good balance and secure
footing.
WARNING
When you pull the starter grip, do not
wrap the starter rope around your hand.
Do not let the grip snap back, but guide
the starter rope to rewind it properly.
Failure to follow this procedure may
result in injury to your hand or fingers
and may damage the starter
mechanism.
Once the engine has started,
immediately blip the throttle trigger,
which should cause the choke knob to
move to the run position and allow the
engine to slow down to idle.

During Operation
Holding and Controlling the Power Tool
The blower is designed for single-
handed operation with the right hand on
the control handle. It should be carried
as a backpack with the straps of the
harness over both shoulders.
Watch out for small animals when using
the blower on open ground, in yards and
gardens.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of loss of control,
never carry the unit with the strap(s)
over one shoulder.
Wrap your fingers tightly around the
handle, keeping the control handle
cradled between your thumb and
forefinger. Keep your hand in this
position to have your machine under
control at all times.
WARNING
Special care must be taken in slippery
conditions (wet ground) and in difficult,
overgrown terrain. Watch for hidden
obstacles such as tree stumps, roots,
rocks, holes and ditches to avoid
stumbling. For better footing, clear away
fallen branches, scrub and cuttings. Be
extremely cautious when working on
slopes or uneven ground.
To reduce the risk of stumbling and loss
of control, do not walk backward while
operating the machine.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, never work on a ladder or on any
other insecure support.
Working Conditions
To minimize blowing time, use a rake
and broom to loosen dirt particles before
you start blowing.
Save water by using a blower instead of
a water hose for lawn and garden work
wherever possible, e.g. for cleaning
yards and patios.
Recommended working technique to
minimize air pollution:
If conditions are very dusty, dampen
–
surfaces slightly before blowing.
Pull out the nozzle to full length so
–
that the airstream is at ground level.
Do not blow particles in the direction
–
of bystanders, in particular in the
direction of children, pets, open
windows or freshly washed
vehicles. Take special care in such
situations.
Remove the blow-swept debris in
–
rubbish bins – do not blow it onto the
neighbor's land.
