english / USA !Warning! To reduce the risk of fire and burn injuries, check the fuel filler cap for leaks at regular intervals. 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 boot of the proper size. (Note: If boot has detachable SAE adapter nut, it must be attached.) A loose connection between spark plug boot and ignition wire connector in the boot may create arcing that could ignite combustible fumes and cause a fire. !Warning! Never test the ignition system with ignition wire boot removed from the spark plug or with a removed spark plug, since uncontained sparking may cause a fire. !Warning! A damaged or improperly maintained muffler will increase the risk of fire and hearing loss. Never touch a hot muffler or burn will result. If your muffler was equipped with a spark-arresting screen to reduce the risk of fire (e.g. in the USA, Canada and Australia), never operate your CombiEngine if the screen is missing or damaged. Do not disassemble, modify or remove any part of the muffler or spark arresting screen. Remember that the risk of forest fires is greater in hot or dry weather. Have your muffler serviced and repaired by your STIHL Servicing Dealer only. Keep the cutting attachment sharp. Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws, except the carburetor adjustment screws, after each use. Additionally, the daily maintenance schedule for your power tool set forth in your STIHL Owner's Manual should be strictly followed. For any maintenance please refer to the maintenance chart and to the warranty statement near the end of this manual. Store the power tool in a dry, high or locked location out of reach of children. Before storing for longer than a few days, always empty the fuel tank. See chapter "Storing the machine". 10 KM 85, KM 85 R
