WARNING
To reduce the risk of
injury to your eyes never
operate your power tool
unless wearing goggles
or properly fitted protec -
tive glasses with
adequate top and side
protection complying with
ANSI Z87 "+" (or your
applicable national stand -
ard). To reduce the risk of
injury to your face STIHL
recommends that you
also wear a face shield or
face screen over your
goggles or protective
glasses.
Wear an approved safety
hard hat to reduce the
risk of injury to your head
when there is a danger of
head injuries.
Power tool noise may
damage your hearing.
Wear sound barriers (ear
plugs or ear mufflers) to
protect your hearing.
Continual and regular
users should have their
hearing checked
regularly.
Be particularly alert and cautious when
wearing hearing protection because
your ability to hear warnings (shouts,
alarms, etc.) is restricted.
FS 311
Always wear heavy duty
work gloves (e.g. made of
leather or other wear
resistant material) when
handling the machine
and metal blades. Heavy-
duty, nonslip gloves
improve your grip and
help to protect your
hands.
Clothing must be sturdy
and snug-fitting, but allow
complete freedom of
movement. Wear long
pants made of heavy
material to help protect
your legs. Do not wear
shorts, sandals or go
barefoot.
Avoid loose-fitting jackets, scarfs,
neckties, jewelry, flared or cuffed pants,
unconfined long hair or anything that
could become caught on branches,
brush or the moving parts of the unit.
Secure hair so it is above shoulder level.
Good footing is very
important. Wear sturdy
boots with nonslip soles.
Steel-toed safety boots
are recommended.

WARNING
Never modify this power tool in any way.
Only attachments supplied by STIHL
and expressly approved by STIHL for

unauthorized attachments are useable
with STIHL power tools, their use may,
in fact, be extremely dangerous. For the
cutting attachments authorized by
STIHL for your unit, see the chapter
"Approved Combinations of Cutting
Attachment, Deflector, Limit Stop and
Harness" in the instruction manual or the
STIHL "Cutting Attachments, Parts &
Accessories" catalog.
If this tool is subjected to unusually high
loads for which it was not designed (e.g.
heavy impact or a fall), always check
that it is in good condition before
continuing work. Check in particular that
the fuel system is tight (no leaks) and
that the controls and safety devices are
working properly. Do not continue
operating this machine if it is damaged.
In case of doubt, have it checked by your
STIHL servicing dealer.
