English consult their physician and the pacemaker manufacturer before operating this tool. Proper Clothing WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, the operator should wear proper protective apparel. WARNING To reduce the risk of injury to your eyes never operate your power tool unless wearing goggles or properly fitted protective glasses with adequate top and side protection complying with ANSI Z87 "+" (or your applicable national standard.) To reduce the risk of injury to your face STIHL recommends that you also wear a face shield or face screen over your goggles or protective glasses. Power tool noise may damage your hearing. Wear sound barriers (ear plugs or ear mufflers) to protect your hearing. Continual and regular users should have their hearing checked regularly. Be particularly alert and cautious when wearing hearing protection because your ability to hear warnings (shouts, alarms, etc.) is restricted. Always wear heavy duty work gloves (e.g. made of leather or other wear resistant material) when handling the machine and the cutting tool. Heavy-duty, nonslip gloves improve your grip and help to protect your hands. Clothing must be sturdy and snug-fitting, but allow complete freedom of movement. Wear long pants made of heavy material to help protect your legs. Do not wear shorts, sandals or go barefoot. Avoid loose-fitting jackets, scarfs, neckties, jewelry, flared or cuffed pants, unconfined long hair or anything that could become caught on branches, brush or the moving parts of the unit. Secure hair so it is above shoulder level. Good footing is very important. Wear sturdy boots with nonslip soles. Steel-toed safety boots are recommended. THE POWER TOOL For illustrations and definitions of the power tool parts see the chapter on "Main Parts". WARNING Never modify this power tool in any way. Only attachments supplied by STIHL or expressly approved by STIHL for use with the specific STIHL model are authorized. Although certain unauthorized attachments are useable with STIHL power tools, their use may, in fact, be extremely dangerous. If this 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. Check in particular that the fuel system is tight (no leaks) and that the controls and safety devices are working properly. Do not continue operating this machine if it is damaged. In case of doubt, have it checked by your STIHL servicing dealer. THE USE OF THE POWER TOOL Transporting the Power Tool WARNING To reduce the risk of injury from blade contact, never carry or transport your power tool with the cutter blades moving. 4 HS 82 R, HS 82 T
