IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Only for use with STIHL trimmers. Check
trimmer manual for compatibility.
STIHL recommends the use of original
STIHL replacement parts and accesso‐
ries.
WARNING
Read and follow all safety
precautions in manual for
your trimmer. Improper
use can cause serious or
fatal injury!
Objects may be thrown or
ricochet in all directions.
To reduce risk of injury to
operator, never operate a
trimmer without a properly
configured and mounted
deflector. Keep bystand‐
ers at least 15 m (50 ft.)
away.
To reduce risk of eye injury,
always wear goggles or close-fit‐
ting protective glasses with ade‐
quate side protection that are
impact-rated and marked as
complying with ANSI Z87.1
(US), EN 166 (Europe) or your
national standard.
■ To reduce the risk of hearing damage,
wear sound barriers (ear plugs or ear
muffs).
■ A cracked, damaged or worn out mow‐
ing head may shatter at high speeds
and cause serious or fatal injury. To
reduce risk of injury from broken parts,
check condition of trimmer and mowing
head before starting work and at regu‐
lar short intervals thereafter.
■ Some STIHL mowing heads have a
metal core. High-speed contact with
rock or other hard objects may create
sparks, which can ignite flammable
materials under certain circumstances.
Flammable materials include dry vege‐
tation and brush, particularly when
weather conditions are hot and dry.
When there is a risk of fire or wildfire,
do not use a mowing head with a metal
core around dry vegetation or brush.
Keep mowing lines in a water bath
between 12 hours and 24 hours before
use to increase their useful life.
