English / USA !Warning! Never attempt to operate any PowerSweep with one hand. Loss of control of the PowerSweep may result in personal injury. Special care must be taken in slippery conditions (wet ground, snow). Examine work area and check for solid objects (such as stones, pieces of metal, etc.) which could be thrown and cause injury or damage the sweeper flaps or other property (e.g. parked vehicles, windows, etc.). !Warning! This PowerSweep is to be used at ground level with the sweeper belts parallel to the ground. Use of a PowerSweep above ground level may increase the risk of injury, since the brooming attachment is more fully exposed and the PowerSweep may be more difficult to control. Do not operate the PowerSweep using the starting throttle lock as you do not have control of the engine speed. See section of your owner's manual on the proper use of the slide control. If the sweeper belts become clogged or stuck, always turn off the engine and make sure the sweeper belts have stopped, before cleaning. Important adjustments !Warning! To reduce the risk of personal injury from loss of control or contact with the running sweeper drums, do not use your PowerSweep with incorrect idle adjustment. At correct idle speed, the sweeper drums should not move. For directions on how to adjust idle speed, see the appropriate section of the owner's manual of the power tool. If you cannot set the correct idle speed, have your STIHL dealer check your PowerSweep and make proper adjustments and repairs. MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND STORING Use only identical STIHL replacement parts for maintenance and repair. Use of non-STIHL parts may cause serious or fatal injury. Follow the maintenance and repair instructions in the appropriate section of your owner's manual. Please refer to the maintenance chart at the last pages of this manual. !Warning! Always stop the engine and make sure that the sweeper belts have stopped before doing any maintenance or repair work or cleaning the PowerSweep. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair work not described in your owner's manual. Have such work performed at your STIHL dealer shop only. !Warning! Check condition of sweeper belts at regular intervals. Loose particles or pieces of the belts could be thrown and injure the operator or bystanders. To reduce risk of injury from broken parts replace damaged sweeper belts immediately and always in pairs. Do not reuse or attempt to repair damaged or worn sweeper belts. 8 KW
