are specifically authorized by STIHL for
use on your power tool power head and
shaft with soil cultivating attachment.
WARNING
Do not lend or rent your power tool
without the instruction manuals for your
basic power tool and your soil cultivating
attachment. Be sure that anyone using it
understands the information contained
in these manuals.
WARNING
The use of this machine may be
hazardous. If the rotating blade comes in
contact with your body, it will injure you.
When it comes in contact with solid
foreign objects such as rocks or bits of
metal, it may fling them directly or by
ricochet in the direction of bystanders or
the operator. Striking such objects could
damage the soil cultivating attachment
and may cause blades to crack, chip or
break. Thrown objects, including broken
blades, may result in serious or fatal
injury to the operator or bystanders.
STIHL does not recommend the use of
non-elastic blades when working in
stony areas.
Use your power tool power head and
shaft equipped with the soil cultivating
attachment only for rejuvenation of
flower beds and plantings, and for
mixing soil-improving additives into the
soil.
WARNING
Do not use it for other purposes, since
misuse may result in personal injury or
property damage, including damage to
the machine.
WARNING
Minors should never be allowed to use
this power tool. Bystanders, especially
children, and animals should not be
allowed in the area where it is in use.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to bystanders
and damage to property, never let your
power tool run unattended. When it is
not in use (e.g. during a work break),
shut it off and make sure that
unauthorized persons do not use it.
Most of these safety precautions and
warnings apply to the use of all STIHL
soil cultivators. Different models may
have different parts and controls. See
the appropriate section of your basic
power tool and your soil cultivating
attachment instruction manuals for a
description of the controls and the
function of the parts of your model.
Safe use of a power tool involves
1. the operator
2. the power tool
3. the use of the power tool.

Pick tines are particularly suitable for
tilling and loosening hard or packed soil.
BF
English
Preparations
N Start the engine.
N Put on the shoulder strap.
Working Technique
You can work with your cultivator in the
forward (1) and backward (2) directions,
from left to right or vice versa (3) or in a
circular motion.
Choose the best method to suit your
purpose, i.e. this depends on the shape
and size of the area and soil conditions.
Working in an alternating backwards
and forwards motion is particularly
suitable for loosening packed soil.
The rotor blades may only be mounted
and operated in one position. Arrows on
the blades show the required direction of
rotation.
Typical Applications
N Breaking up soil
A few preparations are necessary before
you begin to break up soil which has
been previously tilled (e.g. last year's
vegetable or flower garden). First clear
away surface weeds and remains of
other plants as well as hard objects like
rocks, stones, bottles, pieces of wood
etc.
Hold the cultivator firmly with both hands
and till only a small area at a time to the
required depth.
Finish tilling the area by guiding the
cultivator in such a way that you leave
no footprints. Use a rake to level off the
entire area.
N Loosening soil around plants
Only loosen the surface soil around
plants. Avoid going too deep as this
could damage the shallow roots of some
plants.
To avoid any damage to the cultivator or
trees, be wary not to catch the blades on
the large roots of trees.
N Working in soil improvers
The cultivator can be used for mulching
with loam, compost, leaves, other
organic material or fertilizers.
Prepare the area by removing all old
roots, the remains of large plants and
hard objects (stones etc.). Spread the
mulch evenly on the ground.
Work in the mulch with a circular or back
and forth motion.
Finish off by leveling the area with a
rake.
N Trenching or furrowing
Walk slowly backward and pull the
cultivator to create the furrow required.
Repeat as necessary to obtain deeper
furrows.
Cleaning the rotor blades
Parts of plants, e.g. roots, can become
tightly wrapped around or between the
rotor blades during operation. To clean
the rotor blades:
– Wear work gloves.
– Pull the hitch pins out of the axle.
– Pull the rotor blades off the shaft.
– Remove pieces of roots, plants and
soil.
