Seechapters on "Fitting the Harness"and "Balancing theTrimmer/Brushcutter".To reduce the risk of accidents, do notoperate your power tool if it is damagedor not properly assembled.If you use a shoulder strap or fullharness: Practice removing and puttingdown the power tool as you would in anemergency. To avoid damage, do notthrow the power tool to the ground whenpracticing.Start the engine.Start the engine at least 3 meters fromthe fueling spot, outdoors only.Place the unit on firm ground in an openarea. Make sure you have good balanceand secure footing. Hold the unitsecurely. The cutting attachment mustbe clear of the ground and all otherobstructions because it may begin to runwhen the engine starts.FS 120, FS 120 R, FS 250Your power tool is a one-person unit. Toreduce the risk of injury from thrownobjects, do not allow other personswithin a radius of 15 meters of your ownposition – even when starting.Models with bike handleTo reduce the risk ofinjury, avoid contact withthe cutting attachment.Do not drop start thepower tool – start theengine as described inthe instruction manual.Note that the cuttingattachment continues torun for a short periodafter you let go of thethrottle trigger – flywheeleffect.Check idle speed setting: The cuttingattachment must not rotate when theengine is idling with the throttle triggerreleased.To reduce the risk of fire, keep hotexhaust gases and hot muffler awayfrom easily combustible materials (e.g.wood chips, bark, dry grass, fuel).002BA055 KNCheck protective devices (e.g.deflector for cutting attachment,rider plate) for damage or wear.Always replace damaged parts. Donot operate your machine with adamaged deflector or worn riderplate (lettering and arrows no longerlegible).Right handle on control handle, left handon left handle.Models with loop handle002BA080 KN–On models with a loop handle andbarrier bar, left hand on loop handle,right hand on control handle, even if youare left-handed.During OperationHolding and Controlling the Power ToolAlways hold the power tool firmly withboth hands on the handles.Make sure you always have goodbalance and secure footing.Make sure you always have goodbalance and secure footing.In the event of impending danger or inan emergency, switch off the engineimmediately by moving the slide control/ stop switch to STOP or 0.5
English15m (50ft)The cutting attachment may catch andfling objects a great distance and causeinjury - therefore, do not allow any otherpersons within a radius of 15 meters ofyour own position. To reduce the risk ofdamage to property, also maintain thisdistance from other objects (vehicles,windows). Even maintaining a distanceof 15 meters or more cannot exclude thepotential danger.The correct engine idle speed isimportant to ensure that the cuttingattachment stops rotating when you letgo of the throttle trigger.Check and correct the idle speed settingregularly. If the cutting attachmentcontinues to rotate when the engine isidling, have the machine checked byyour servicing dealer. STIHLrecommends an authorized STIHLservicing dealer.Take special care in slippery conditions(ice, wet ground, snow), on slopes oruneven ground.Watch out for obstacles: Roots and treestumps which could cause you to trip orstumble.Always stand on the ground whileworking, never on a ladder, workplatform or any other insecure support.Be particularly alert and cautious whenwearing hearing protection becauseyour ability to hear warnings (shouts,alarms, etc.) is restricted.6To reduce the risk of accidents, take abreak in good time to avoid tiredness orexhaustion.Work calmly and carefully – in daylightconditions and only when visibility isgood. Stay alert so as not to endangerothers.Your power tool producestoxic exhaust fumes assoon as the engine isrunning. These fumesmay be colorless andodorless and containunburned hydrocarbonsand benzol. Never runthe engine indoors or inpoorly ventilated locations, even if your modelis equipped with a catalytic converter.To reduce the risk of serious or fatalinjury from breathing toxic fumes,ensure proper ventilation when workingin trenches, hollows or other confinedlocations.To reduce the risk of accidents, stopwork immediately in the event ofnausea, headache, visual disturbances(e.g. reduced field of vision), problemswith hearing, dizziness, deterioration inability to concentrate. Apart from otherpossibilities, these symptoms may becaused by an excessively highconcentration of exhaust gases in thework area.To reduce the risk of fire, do not smokewhile operating or standing near yourpower tool. Note that combustible fuelvapor may escape from the fuel system.The dusts, vapor and smoke producedduring operation may be dangerous tohealth. If the work area is very dusty orsmoky, wear a respirator.If your power tool is subjected tounusually high loads for which it was notdesigned (e.g. heavy impact or a fall),always check that it is in good conditionbefore continuing work – see also"Before Starting".Check the fuel system in particular forleaks and make sure the safety devicesare working properly. Do not continueoperating your power tool if it isdamaged. In case of doubt, consult yourservicing dealer.Do not operate your power tool in thestarting throttle position – engine speedcannot be controlled in this position.To reduce the riskof injury fromthrown objects,never operate theunit without theproper deflector forthe type of cuttingattachment beingused.Operate your power tool so that itproduces a minimum of noise andemissions – do not run the engineunnecessarily, accelerate the engineonly when working.FS 120, FS 120 R, FS 250
EnglishInspect the work area:Stones, pieces of metalor other solid objects maybe thrown more than 15meters and cause personal injury or damagethe cutting attachmentand property (e.g. parkedvehicles, windows).The gearbox becomeshot during operation. Toreduce the risk of burninjury, do not touch thegearbox housing.Sharpen metal cutting attachmentsregularly as specified.When using mowing headsUnevenly sharpened metal cuttingattachments cause out-of-balancewhich can impose extremely high loadson the machine and increase the risk ofbreakage.Special care must be taken whenworking in difficult, over-grown terrain.Equip the deflector with the additionalcomponents specified in the instructionmanual.Dull or improperly sharpened cuttingedges can put a higher load on thecutting attachment and increase the riskof injury from cracked or broken parts.When cutting high scrub, under bushesand hedges: Keep cutting attachment ata minimum height of 15 cm to avoidharming small animals.Use only the deflector with properlymounted line limiting blade to ensure themowing lines are automatically trimmedto the approved length.Always shut off the engine beforeleaving the unit unattended.To reduce the risk of injury, always turnoff the engine before adjusting the nylonline of manually adjustable mowingheadsCheck the cutting attachment at regularshort intervals during operation orimmediately if there is a noticeablechange in cutting behavior:–Turn off the engine. Hold the unitfirmly and wait for the cuttingattachment to come to a standstill.–Check condition and tightness, lookfor cracks.–Check sharpness.–Replace damaged or dull cuttingattachments immediately, even ifthey have only superficial cracks.Using the unit with over-long nyloncutting lines reduces the engine'soperating speed. The clutch then slipscontinuously and this causesoverheating and damage to importantcomponents (e.g. clutch, polymerhousing components) – and this canincrease the risk of injury from thecutting attachment rotating while theengine is idling.Using metal cutting attachmentsClean grass and plant residue off thecutting attachment mounting at regularintervals – remove any build up ofmaterial from the cutting attachment anddeflector.STIHL recommends the use of originalSTIHL metal cutting attachments. Theyare specifically designed to match yourmodel and meet your performancerequirements.To reduce the risk of injury, shut off theengine before replacing the cuttingattachment.Metal cutting attachments rotate at veryhigh speed. The forces that occur act onthe machine, the attachment and thematerial being cut.FS 120, FS 120 R, FS 250Inspect metal cutting attachments forcracks or warping after every contactwith hard objects (e.g. stones, rocks,pieces of metal). To reduce the risk ofinjury, remove burrs and other visiblebuild-ups of material (use a file) becausethey may become detached and bethrown at high speed during operation.If a rotating metal cutting attachmentmakes contact with a rock or other solidobject there is a risk of sparking whichmay cause easily combustible materialto catch fire under certaincircumstances. Dry plants and scrub arealso easily combustible, especially in hotand dry weather conditions. If there is arisk of fire, do not use metal cuttingattachments near combustiblematerials, dry plants or scrub. Alwayscontact your local forest authority forinformation on a possible fire risk.Do not continue using or attempt torepair damaged or cracked cuttingattachments by welding, straightening ormodifying the shape (out of balance).This may cause parts of the cuttingattachment to come off and hit theoperator or bystanders at high speedand result in serious or fatal injuries.7
EnglishTo reduce the above-mentioned riskswhen using a metal cutting attachment,never use a metal cutting attachmentwith a diameter larger than specified. Itmust not be too heavy. It must bemanufactured from materials ofadequate quality and its geometry mustbe correct (shape, thickness).To reduce the risk of injury, a metalcutting attachment not manufactured bySTIHL must not be heavier, thicker,have a different shape or a diameterlarger than the largest metal cuttingattachment approved by STIHL for thispower tool model.VibrationsProlonged use of the power tool mayresult in vibration-induced circulationproblems in the hands (whitefingerdisease).No general recommendation can begiven for the length of usage because itdepends on several factors.The period of usage is prolonged by:–Hand protection (wearing warmgloves)–Work breaksThe period of usage is shortened by:–Any personal tendency to sufferfrom poor circulation (symptoms:frequently cold fingers, tinglingsensations).–Low outside temperatures.–The force with which the handlesare held (a tight grip restrictscirculation).8Continual and regular users shouldmonitor closely the condition of theirhands and fingers.
