English KombiSystem In the STIHL KombiSystem a number of different KombiEngines and KombiTools can be combined to produce a power tool. In this instruction manual the functional unit formed by the KombiEngine 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.
English Safety Precautions and Working Techniques Special safety precautions must be observed when working with a power tool. 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. Nonobservance of the safety precautions may result in serious or even fatal injury. Observe all applicable local safety regulations, standards and ordinances.
English there are any leaks or damage, do not start the engine – risk of fire. Have your machine repaired by a servicing dealer before using it again. Open the fuel cap carefully to allow any pressure build-up in the tank to release slowly and avoid fuel spillage. Transporting the Power Tool Fuel your power tool only in wellventilated areas. If you spill fuel, wipe the machine immediately – if fuel gets on your clothing, change immediately.
English See also notes on "Before Starting" in the instruction manual of the KombiTool you are using. machine and make proper adjustments or repairs.

Operate your power tool so that it produces a minimum of noise and emissions – do not run the engine unnecessarily, accelerate the engine only when working. To reduce the risk of fire, do not smoke while operating or standing near your power tool.
English To reduce the risk of fire and damage to hearing, do not operate your machine if the muffler is damaged or missing. – Approved KombiTools Do not touch a hot muffler since burn injury will result. The following STIHL KombiTools may be mounted on the KombiMotor: Vibration behavior is influenced by the condition of the AV elements – check the AV elements at regular intervals.

English Adjusting the Throttle Cable Fuel It may be necessary to correct the adjustment of the throttle cable after assembling the machine or after a prolonged period of operation. Your engine requires a mixture of gasoline and engine oil. Adjust the throttle cable only when the unit is completely and properly assembled. For health reasons, avoid direct skin contact with gasoline and avoid inhaling gasoline vapor.
English Storing Fuel Filling Up with Fuel Fueling Store fuel only in approved safety-type fuel canisters in a dry, cool and safe location protected from light and the sun. Fuel mix ages – only mix sufficient fuel for a few weeks work. Do not store fuel mix for longer than 30 days. Exposure to light, the sun, low or high temperatures can quickly make the fuel mix unusable. Take care not to spill fuel while fueling and do not overfill the tank.

Operating Instructions During break-in period N Set the choke lever to suit the engine temperature. A factory-new machine should not be run at high revs (full throttle off load) for the first three tank fillings. This avoids unnecessary high loads during the break-in period.
English Spark Arresting Screen in Muffler The carburetor has been set at the factory to provide an optimum fuel-air mixture under most operating conditions. Spark Plug N If the engine is down on power, check the spark arresting screen in the muffler. N If the engine is down on power, difficult to start or runs poorly at idle speed, first check the spark plug. N Wait for the muffler to cool down. N Fit a new spark plug after about 100 operating hours – or sooner if the electrodes are badly eroded.
