Safety Precautions
The use of any cut-off machine may be hazardous. Because a
cut-off machine is a high­speed, fast-cutting power
tool, special safety precautions must be observed to reduce the risk of personal injury and fire.
It is important that you read, fully understand and observe the following safety precautions and warnings.
Read the Owners Manual and the safety instructions
periodically.
Do not lend or rent your cut-off machine without the Owners Manual. Be sure that anyone using your cut-off machine understands the information contained in this manual. Employers should establish a training program for operators of gasoline-powered, hand­held portable, cut-off machines to assure safe operation of these machines. These safety precautions and warnings apply to the use of all STIHL Cutquiks.
Careless or improper use of any cut-off machine may cause serious or fatal injury.
Have your STIHL dealer show you how to operate your cut-off machine. Observe all applicable local safety regulations, standards and ordinances.
L
I Warning)
Minors should never be allowed to use a cut-off machine. Bystanders, especially children, and animals should not be allowed in the area where a cut-off machine is in use. Never let the cut-off machine run unattended.
Different models may have different parts and controls. See the appropriate section of your owners manual for a description of the controls and function of the parts of your model cut-off machine.
Safe use of a cut-off machine involves — the operator
— the cut-off machine — the use of the cut-off machine.
THE OPERATOR Physical Condition
You must be in good physical condition and mental health and not under the influence of any substance (drugs, alcohol, etc.) which might impair vision, dexterity or judgment. Do not operate a cut-off machine when you are fatigued. Be alert - if you get tired while operating your cut-off machine, take a break; tiredness may result in loss of control. Working with any cut-off machine can be strenuous. If you have any condition that might be aggravated by strenuous work, check with your doctor before operating a cut-off machine.

Warningl
Prolonged use of cut-off machines (or other machines) exposing the operator to vibrations may produce whitefinger disease (Raynaud's phenomenon) or carpal tunnel syndrome. These conditions reduce the hand's ability to feel and regulate temperature, produce numbness and burning sensations and cause nerve and circulation damage and tissue necrosis. All factors which contribute to whitefinger disease are not known, but cold weather, smoking and diseases or physical conditions that affect blood vessels and blood transport, as well as high vibration levels and long periods of exposure to vibration are mentioned as factors in the development of whitefinger disease. In order to reduce the risk of whitefinger disease and carpal tunnel syndrome, please note the following:
— Most STIHL cut-off machine models
are available with an anti-vibration ("AV") system designed to reduce the transmission of vibrations created by the engine to the operators hands. An AV system is recommended for those persons using cut-off machines on a regular or sustained basis.
— Wear gloves and keep your hands
warm.
— Keep the AV system well
maintained. A cut-off machine with loose components or with damaged or worn AV buffers will tend to have higher vibration levels.
— Maintain a firm grip at all times, but
do not squeeze the handles with constant, excessive pressure. Take frequent breaks.
All the above-mentioned precautions do not guarantee that you will not sustain whitefinger disease or carpal tunnel syndrome. Therefore, continual and regular users should monitor closely the condition of their hands and fingers. If any of the above symptoms appear, seek medical advice immediately.
LI Warning
The ignition system of your unit produces an electromagnetic field of a very low intensity. This field may interfere with some pacemakers. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, persons with a pacemaker should consult their physician and the pacemaker manufacturer before operating this tool.
Proper Clothing
L
I Warningl
0
To reduce the risk of
(1~,)
injury, the operator should wear proper protective apparel.
Clothing must be sturdy and snug-fitting, but allow complete freedom of movement. Avoid loose-fitting jackets, scarfs, neckties, jewelry, flared or cuffed pants, unconfined long hair or anything that could become caught on any obstacles or moving parts of the unit. Wear overalls or long pants to protect your legs. Do not wear shorts.
