Do not use a spark plug with a
detachable SAE adapter terminal (3).
Arcing may occur that could ignite
combustible fumes and cause a fire.
This can result in serious injuries or
damage to property.
N Only use resistor type spark plugs
with solid, non-threaded terminals
Installing the spark plug
N Screw in spark plug
N Firmly press the spark plug
connector onto the spark plug.
N Align the spark plug connector so
that the ignition cable points to the
upper left corner (arrow).
N Place the cap (1) on the hood from
behind and at a slight angle,
pressing the nose (2) into the
opening (3) of the hood.
N On the front, swivel the cap onto the
hood, screw in the screw (4) and
tighten.
If engine running behavior is still
unsatisfactory after the air filter has been
serviced and the carburetor and throttle
cable have been adjusted correctly, the
cause may also be in the muffler.
Have the muffler checked for
contamination (coking) by a servicing
dealer!
STIHL recommends that maintenance
and repair work be carried out only by
authorized STIHL dealers.
