improve all of its products. As a result,
engineering changes and improvements
are made from time to time. If the

appearance of your machine differ from
those described in this manual, please
contact your STIHL dealer for
assistance.
Therefore some changes, modifications
and improvements may not be covered
in this manual.
Special precautionsmust
be taken when working

safety instructions of your TS 700 cut-off
machine and cart periodically. Careless
or improper use of any power tool may
cause serious or fatal injury.
Do not lend or rent your cut-off machine
and cart without the Owner's Manual. Be
sure that anyone using your cut-off
machine and cart understands the
information contained in these manuals.

! Warning !
Minors should never be allowed to use a
cut-off machine and cart. Bystanders,
especially children, and animals should
not be allowed in the area where a cutoff machine is in use. Never let the cutoff machine run unattended.
The cart
For parts of the cart, illustrations and
definitions of the parts see "Parts and
control".
!Warning !
Never modify a cut-off machine or cart in
any way. Only attachments supplied by
STIHL or expressly approved by STIHL
for use with the specific STIHL cut-off
machine model and cart are authorized.
Although certain unauthorized
attachments are usable with a STIHL
powerhead and cart, their use may, in
fact, be extremely dangerous.
Mounting the cut-off machine
!Warning !
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control and subsequent wheel shatter
the cart has been approved by STIHL
only for use with the STIHL TS 700 cutoff machine model. Other cut-off
machines must not be mounted on the
cart.
For assembly, follow the procedure
described at the appropriate sections of
your owner's manuals.
Before operation of your cut-off machine
and cart, be sure that the cart and cut-off
machine are in good working order.
Check correct functioning of the
operating elements (e.g. throttle control,
cutting depth adjustment and follow the
appropriate chapters in the Owner's
Manuals).
Fueling
The cart must be parked so that it cannot
tip over or roll away when refueling the
cut-off machine mounted on the cart.
!Warning !
Gasoline is an extremely flammable fuel.
If spilled or ignited by a spark or other
ignition source, it can cause fire and
serious burn injury or property damage.
Use extreme caution when handling
gasoline or fuel mix. Do not smoke or
bring any fire or flame near the fuel. For
fueling instructions see chapter "Fuel" of
the owner's manual of your cut-off
machine.

Assembling the unit
During work
Sweep debris from the path of the wheel
as debris may cause flexing of the
abrasive wheel. This could result in high
frictional forces and thus greatly reduce
the engine power available for the actual
cutting work. Always use the cart to cut
in a straight line.
!Warning !
If the cart is pushed over objects, the
abrasive wheel may become wedged in
the cut and shatter! Always clear a path
for the cart and never work on uneven
surfaces.
!Warning !
To reduce the risk of injury from a cart
and cut-off machine tipping over and
subsequently causing wheel damage do
not work on uneven surfaces.
!Warning !
Use of this product can generate dust,
mists and fumes containing chemicals
known to cause serious or fatal injury or
illness. Control dust, mists and fumes at
the source where possible. A water
attachment kit is available for your cart
and cut-off machine and should be used
for dust suppression when wet cutting is
feasible. When the inhalation of dust,
mists and fumes cannot be eliminated,
the operator and any bystanders should
always wear a respirator approved by
NIOSH / MSHA for the material being
cut. See also the safety precautions on
dust, mists and fumes in the Owner's
Manual of the cut-off machine.
For information on transporting,
maintenance, repair and storage of your
cut- off machine, see specific sections of
your cut-off machine manual.
