Never attempt to modify the controls or safety devices. FH 5 English / USA !Warning! Never use a power tool that is damaged or not properly maintained. Keep the handles clean and dry at all times; it is particularly important to keep them free of moisture, pitch, oil, grease or resin in order for you to maintain a firm grip and properly control your power tool. !Warning! The cutting tool must be properly tightened and in safe operating condition. Inspect for loose parts (nuts, screws, etc.) and for cracked, bent, warped or damaged blades. Regularly check the condition and tightness of the cutter blades – with the engine stopped! Replace damaged cutter blades before using the power tool. Always keep blades sharp. STIHL recommends that you always spray the cutter blades with STIHL resin solvent before starting work - with the engine stopped! You can obtain this protective spray from your dealer. Apply generously. Adjust carrying harness and hand grip to suit your size before starting work. Starting On machines with an adjustable cutter bar: Secure the cutter bar in the starting position as described in the chapter “Starting/Stopping the Engine.” If this starting position is not the desired cutting position, you will then need to carefully adjust the machine to the desired position once the engine has returned to idle and the blades are no longer moving. On machines with a defined transport position (cutter bar folded against the drive tube): Never start the machine in the transport position, since the blades are not engaged in that position and you therefore cannot visually check to see that they will be stopped at idle when you start to adjust the cutter bar to the desired cutting position (where the blades are engaged). Start the engine at least 10 feet (3 meters) from the fueling spot, outdoors only. For specific starting instructions, see the appropriate section of your power tool and attachment manuals. Place the power tool on firm ground or other solid surface in an open area. Maintain good balance and secure footing. !Warning! To reduce the risk of injury from blade contact, be absolutely sure that the cutting tool is clear of you and all other obstructions and objects, including the ground, because when the engine starts at starting-throttle, engine speed will be fast enough for the clutch to engage and move the blades on the cutting tool. Once the engine has started, immediately blip the throttle trigger, which should release the starting throttle and allow the engine to slow down to idle. With the engine running only at idle, attach the power tool to the spring hook of your harness (see appropriate chapter of this manual). !Warning! Your power tool is a one-person machine. Do not allow other persons in the general work area, even when starting. 6 FH English / USA See also the Safety Precautions on Starting in the instruction manual of the power tool. Important Adjustments !Warning! To reduce the risk of personal injury from loss of control or contact with the running cutting tool, do not use your unit with incorrect idle adjustment. At correct idle speed, the cutting tool should not move. For directions on how to adjust idle speed, see the appropriate section of the power tool instruction manual. If you cannot set the correct idle speed, have your STIHL dealer check your power tool and make proper adjustments and repairs. During Operation Holding and controlling the power tool Always hold the unit firmly with both hands on the handles while you are working. Wrap your fingers and thumbs around the handles. 002BA057 KN Your right hand should grip the rear handle. This also applies to left-handers. !Warning! Never attempt to operate your power tool with one hand. Loss of control of the power tool resulting in serious or fatal injury may result. To reduce the risk of cut injuries, keep hands and feet away from the cutting tool. Never touch a moving cutting tool with your hand or any other part of your body. !Warning! Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Special care must be taken in slippery conditions (wet ground, snow) and in difficult, overgrown terrain. Watch for hidden obstacles such as tree stumps, roots and ditches to avoid stumbling. For better footing, clear away fallen branches, scrub and cuttings. Be extremely cautious when working on slopes or uneven ground. !Warning To reduce the risk of injury from loss of control, never work on a ladder, in a tree or any other insecure support. Never hold the machine above shoulder height. Working conditions Operate and start your power tool only outdoors in a well ventilated area. Operate it under good visibility and daylight conditions only. Work carefully. !Warning! If the vegetation being cut or the surrounding ground is coated with a chemical substance (such as an active pesticide or herbicide), read and follow the instructions and warnings that accompanied the substance at issue.
