A slope inclination of 25° corresponds to a
vertical height increase of 46.6 cm for a
100 cm horizontal distance.

Working:

Caution – risk of injury!

Never put hands or feet on or
underneath rotating parts.
Never touch the rotating blade.

Always keep away from the discharge
opening. Always observe the safety
distance provided by the handlebar.

Do not try to examine the blade
while the machine is operating.
Never open the discharge flap

and/or remove the grass catcher box when
the mowing blade is running. Rotating
blades can cause injury.

Only operate the machine at walking
speed – never run when working with the
machine. Working quickly with the
machine increases the risk of injury due to
stumbling, slipping, etc.

Be particularly careful when turning the
machine around or pulling it towards you.

Risk of stumbling!

Never lift or carry the machine with the
motor running or the mains lead
connected.

Objects hidden in the turf (lawn sprinkler
systems, posts, water valves, foundations,
electrical wires, etc.) must be avoided.
Never run over any such foreign objects.

If the cutting tool or the machine hits an
obstacle or a foreign object, the motor
must be switched off, the power cable
disconnected and an inspection performed
by a specialist.

Beware of the cutting tool
running on for several seconds
before coming to a standstill.

Switch off the motor,

– if tilting of the machine is necessary

when transporting over surfaces other
than grass,

– when pushing the machine to and from

mowing areas,

– before removing the grass catcher box,

– before adjusting the cutting height.

Switch off the motor, disconnect
the mains plug and ensure that
the cutting tool has come to a

complete standstill

– before remedying blockages, including

those in the discharge chute,

– if the cutting tool has hit a foreign object.

The cutting tool needs to be checked for
possible damage. The machine must
not be operated with a damaged or bent
blade shaft or motor shaft.

Risk of

injury through defective parts!

– before you check, clean or carry out

work on the machine (e.g. folding
down/adjusting the handlebar);

– before leaving the machine unattended;

– before lifting, or carrying the machine;

– before transporting the machine.

– after hitting a foreign object or if the

machine vibrates excessively. In these
cases check the machine, in particular
the cutting unit (blade, blade shaft,
blade fastening) for damage and carry
out the necessary repairs before
restarting and working with the
machine.

Owing to the voltage fluctuations caused
by this machine during the run-up period,
other devices connected to the same
circuit may be subject to interference in the
case of unfavourable power supply
conditions. In this case, appropriate steps
should be taken (e.g. connection to a
different circuit than the one used by the
affected device, or operation of the
machine using a circuit with a lower
impedance).

4.6 Maintenance, cleaning, repairs and
storage

Before performing any work on
the machine, before adjusting or
cleaning the machine, or before

checking whether the electric cable is
entwined or damaged, switch off the
machine and disconnect the mains plug.

Risk of injury!

Strong vibration is normally an
indication of a fault.
In particular, the machine must not
be operated with a damaged or
bent blade shaft or mowing blade.
If you do not have the appropriate
expertise, have the necessary
repairs carried out by a specialist
dealer (STIHL recommends STIHL
specialist dealers).
