ice. Raise the unit slowly. Cover and
clearly mark boreholes to prevent
anyone from stepping in a hole.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, never touch
a drilling tool or drilling spindle with your
hand or any part of your body when the
engine is running or the drilling tool is
rotating. It continues to rotate for a short
period after the throttle trigger is
released. Always shut off the engine
before putting the machine down.
WARNING
Drilling tool blades and point are sharp.
To reduce the risk of cut injuries, use
caution when operating and handling.
MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
STORING
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of
the emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any
nonroad engine repair establishment or
individual. However, if you make a
warranty claim for a component which
has not been serviced or maintained
properly or if nonapproved replacement
parts were used, STIHL may deny
coverage.
WARNING
Use only identical STIHL replacement
parts for maintenance and repair. Use of
non-STIHL parts may cause serious or
fatal injury.
Strictly follow the maintenance and
repair instructions in the appropriate
section of your instruction manual.
Please refer to the maintenance chart
near the end of this manual.
WARNING
Always stop the engine before doing any
maintenance or repair work or cleaning
the power tool.
WARNING
Do not attempt any maintenance or
repair work not described in your
instruction manual. Have such work
performed by your STIHL servicing
dealer only.
WARNING
Never test the ignition system with the
spark plug boot removed from the spark
plug or with a removed spark plug, since
uncontained sparking may cause a fire.
WARNING
Use the specified spark plug and make
sure it and the ignition lead are always
clean and in good condition. Always
press spark plug boot snugly onto spark
plug terminal of the proper size. (Note: If
terminal has detachable SAE adapter
nut, it must be securely attached.) A
loose connection between spark plug
terminal and the ignition wire connector
in the boot may create arcing that could
ignite combustible fumes and cause a
fire.
WARNING
Check condition of drilling tool at regular
short intervals. If behavior of tool
changes, check immediately for
tightness or any signs of cracks in
particular.
WARNING
Wear gloves when handling or
performing maintenance on auger
drilling tools.
WARNING
Replace damaged drilling tools
immediately, even if they have only
superficial cracks. Never attempt to
repair damaged drilling tools.
WARNING
Do not operate your power tool if the
muffler is damaged, missing or modified.
An improperly maintained muffler will
increase the risk of fire and hearing loss.
Your muffler is equipped with a spark-
arresting screen to reduce the risk of
fire; never operate your power tool if the
screen is missing, damaged or clogged.
Remember that the risk of a brush or
forest fire is greater in hot or dry
weather.
In California, it is a violation of § 4442 or
§ 4443 of the Public Resources Code to
use or operate gasoline-powered tools
on forest-covered, brush-covered or
grass-covered land unless the engine’s
exhaust system is equipped with a
complying spark arrester that is
maintained in effective working order.
The owner/operator of this product is
responsible for properly maintaining the
