1 KombiSystem
In the STIHL KombiSystem a number of different KombiEngines and KombiTools can be com- bined to produce a power tool. In this instruction manual the functional unit formed by the Kom- biEngine and KombiTool is referred to as the power tool. Therefore, the separate instruction manuals for the KombiEngine and KombiTool should be used together for the power tool. Always read and and make sure you understand both instruction manuals before using your power tool for the first time and keep them in a safe place for future reference.

2.3 Engineering improvements
STIHL's philosophy is to continually improve all of its products. For this reason we may modify the design, engineering and appearance of our products periodically.
Therefore, some changes, modifications and improvements may not be covered in this man- ual.
3 Safety Precautions and Working Techniques
Because a hedge trimmer is a highspeed, fast-cutting power tool with very sharp cutting blades and a long reach, special safety precautions must be observed during operation. Always read and and make sure you understand both instruction manuals (KombiMotor and KombiTool) before using your power tool for the first time and keep them in a safe place for future reference. Non-observance of the safety precautions may result in serious or even fatal injury.
Lend or rent your power tool only to persons who are familiar with this model and its operation do not lend your power tool without the KombiMotor and KombiTool instruction manuals.
Use your hedge trimmer only for cutting hedges, shrubs, bushes, scrub and similar materials.
Do not use your power tool for any other purpose because of the increased risk of accidents.
Only use cutting blades and accessories that are explicitly approved for this power tool by STIHL or are technically identical. If you have any ques- tions in this respect, consult a servicing dealer.
Use only high quality tools and accessories in order to avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine.
STIHL recommends the use of original STIHL tools, cutting attachments and accessories. They

WARNING
To reduce the risk of eye injuries, wear close-fitting safety glasses in accordance with European Standard EN 166. Make sure the safety glasses are a comfortable and snug fit. Wear hearing protection, e.g. earplugs or ear muffs. Wear a safety hard hat with chin strap where there is a danger of head injuries from falling objects. Wear heavy-duty work gloves made of durable material (e.g. leather).
STIHL offers a comprehensive range of personal protective clothing and equipment.
3.2 Transporting the Power Tool
Always shut off the engine. Always fit the blade guard (scabbard) even when you carry the unit for short distances. On units with adjustable cutter bar: Engage the cutter bar in position.
0458-475-0121-E
English
On units with a defined transport position: Move the cutter bar to the transport position and make sure it is properly engaged.
Carry the power tool properly balanced by the drive tube cutting blades behind you.
To reduce the risk of serious burn injuries, avoid touching hot parts of the machine, including the gearbox housing.
Transporting by vehicle: Properly secure your power tool to prevent turnover, fuel spillage and damage.
3.3 Before Starting
Check that your power tool is properly assem- bled and in good condition refer to appropriate chapters in the KombiMotor and KombiTool instruction manuals. Cutting blades: Correctly assembled, securely
mounted and in good condition (clean, move freely, not warped), properly sharpened and sprayed thoroughly with STIHL resin solvent (lubricant). On units with adjustable cutter bar: Make sure the adjuster is properly engaged in the required position for starting. On units with a defined transport position (cut- ter bar folded against drive tube): Never attempt to start the unit in the transport posi- tion. Never attempt to modify the controls or safety devices in any way. Keep the handles dry and clean free from oil and dirt for safe control of the power tool. Adjust shoulder strap and handles to suit your height and reach. See chapter on "Fitting the Harness".
To reduce the risk of accidents, operate your power tool only if it is in a safe condition.
If you use a shoulder strap or full harness: Prac- tice removing and putting down the machine as you would in an emergency. To avoid damage, do not throw the machine to the ground when practicing.
3.4 Holding and Controlling the Power Tool
Always hold the power tool firmly with both hands on the handles.
Make sure you have firm and secure footing and hold the power tool so that the cutting blades are always away from your body.

Right hand on control handle, left hand on han- dle hose on drive tube, even if you are lefthanded. Wrap fingers and thumbs firmly around the handles.
3.5 During Operation
In the event of impending danger or in an emer- gency, switch off the engine immediately by mov- ing the slide control / stop switch/button to 0 or STOP.
This power tool is not insulated against electric shock. To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep well clear of electric power lines.
0000-GXX-1678-A0
To reduce the risk of injury from moving blades or falling cuttings, do not allow bystanders within 5 meters of your own position. To reduce the risk of damage to property, also maintain this dis- tance from other objects (vehicles, windows).
Maintain a minimum clearance of 15 meters between the tip of the cutter bar and electric power lines. Electricity can jump considerable distances by means of arcing. Higher voltage increases the distance electricity can arc. Have the power switched off before starting work in the immediate vicinity of power lines.
Make sure the idle speed setting is correct. The cutting blades must not run when the engine is idling with the throttle trigger released. Check and correct the idle speed setting regularly. If the cutting blades still run when the engine is idling, have your dealer check your machine and make proper adjustments or repairs. Check and correct the idle speed setting regularly.
Watch the cutting blades at all times do not cut areas of the hedge that you cannot see.
Be extremely careful when cutting tall hedges, check the other side of the hedge before starting work.
The gearbox becomes hot during operation. To reduce the risk of burn injury, do not touch the gearbox hous- ing.
Take special care in slippery conditions (ice, wet ground, snow) on slopes or uneven ground.
Clear away fallen branches, scrub and cuttings from the work area.
Watch out for obstacles: Roots and tree stumps which could cause you to trip or stumble.

4 Using the Unit
Make sure you always have good balance and secure footing.
3.5.1 When working at heights: Always use a lift bucket Never work on a ladder or in a tree Never work on an insecure support Never operate your power tool with one hand
Be particularly alert and cautious when wearing hearing protection because your ability to hear warnings (shouts, alarms, etc.) is restricted.
To reduce the risk of accidents, take a break in good time to avoid tiredness or exhaustion.
Work calmly and carefully in daylight conditions and only when visibility is good. Stay alert so as not to endanger others.
Inspect the hedge and work area to avoid dam- aging the cutting blades: Remove stones, rocks, pieces of metal and
other solid objects. When working close to the ground, make sure
that no sand, grit or stones get between the blades. Take particular care when cutting hedges next to or against wire fences.
To avoid the risk of electrocution, do not touch electric power lines never cut through electric power lines.
Do not touch the cutting blades while the motor is running. If the cutting blades become jammed by an object, switch off the engine immediately before attempting to remove the object there is otherwise a risk of injury.
Opening the throttle while the blades are blocked increases the load and reduces engine speed. The clutch then slips continuously and this cau- ses overheating and damage to important com- ponents (e.g. clutch, polymer housing compo- nents) and this can increase the risk of injury from the cutting blades moving while the engine is idling.
If your power tool is subjected to unusually high loads for which it was not designed (e.g. heavy impact or a fall), always check that it is in good condition before continuing work see also "Before Starting". Make sure the safety devices are working properly. Do not continue operating your power tool if it is damaged. In case of doubt, consult your servicing dealer.
If the hedge is very dusty or dirty, spray the blades with STIHL resin solvent from time to time
0458-475-0121-E
English
during cutting. This helps greatly reduce blade friction as well as the aggressive effects of sap and the build-up of dirt particles.
Check the cutting attachment at regular short intervals during operation or immediately if there is a noticeable change in cutting behavior: Stopping the Engine Wait until the cutting blades have come to a
complete standstill. Check condition and tightness, look for cracks. Check sharpness.
3.6 After Finishing Work
After finishing work or before leaving the power tool unattended: Shut off the engine.
Always clean dust and dirt off the machine do not use any grease solvents for this purpose.
Spray the blades with STIHL resin solvent. Run the motor briefly to ensure that the solvent is evenly distributed.
3.7 Maintenance and Repairs
Service the machine regularly. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair work not described in the KombiTool and KombiEngine instruction manuals. Have all other work performed by a servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends that you have servicing and repair work carried out exclusively by an author- ized STIHL servicing dealer. STIHL dealers are regularly given the opportunity to attend training courses and are supplied with the necessary technical information.
Only use high-quality replacement parts in order to avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine. If you have any questions in this respect, consult a servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine STIHL replacement parts. They are specifically designed to match your model and meet your performance requirements.
To reduce the risk of injury, always shut off the engine before carrying out any maintenance or repairs or cleaning the machine.
