Stihl FS 91 Manual De Instrucciones página 19

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
properly, 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
sections of your instruction manual.
WARNING
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the cutting attachment 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 instruction manual.
Have such work performed by your
STIHL servicing dealer only.
Wear gloves when handling or
performing maintenance on blades.
WARNING
Use the specified spark plug, and make
sure it and the ignition lead are always
clean and in good condition. Always
press the spark plug boot snugly onto
the spark plug terminal of the proper
size. (Note: If the terminal has a
FS 91, FS 91 R
detachable SAE adapter nut, it must be
securely attached.) A loose connection
between the spark plug and the ignition
wire connector in the boot may create
arcing that could ignite combustible
fumes and cause a fire.
WARNING
Never test the ignition system with the
spark plug 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 modified.
An improperly maintained muffler will
increase the risk of fire and hearing loss.
Your muffler is equipped with a spark-
arresting screen to reduce the risk of
fire; never operate your power tool if the
screen is missing, damaged or clogged.
Remember that the risk of a brush or
forest fire is greater in hot or dry
weather.
In California, it is a violation of § 4442 or
§ 4443 of the Public Resources Code to
use or operate gasoline-powered tools
on forest-covered, brush-covered or
grass-covered land unless the engine's
exhaust system is equipped with a
complying spark arrester that is
maintained in effective working order.
The owner/operator of this product is
responsible for properly maintaining the
spark arrester. Other states or
governmental entities/agencies, such as
the U.S. Forest Service, may have
similar requirements. Contact your local
fire agency or forest service for the laws
or regulations relating to fire protection
requirements.
WARNING
Never repair damaged cutting
attachments by welding, straightening or
modifying the shape. This may cause
parts of the cutting attachment to come
off and result in serious or fatal injuries.
Keep blades sharp. 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.
Before storing for longer than a few
days, always empty the fuel tank. See
chapter "Storing the Machine" in the
instruction manual.
