English WARNING The MultiTool continues to rotate for a short period after the throttle trigger is released (flywheel effect). If the MultiTool or deflector becomes clogged or stuck, always switch off the engine and make sure the attachment has stopped before cleaning. Grass, moss, weeds, etc. should be cleaned off the attachment as necessary. 5m (16ft) To reduce the risk of eye and other injury ensure that bystanders are at least 16 feet (5 m) away. Bystanders should be encouraged to wear eye protection. To reduce the risk of damage to property, also maintain this distance from such objects as vehicles or windows. Stop the engine immediately if you are approached. WARNING Before you start work, examine the area for stones, glass, pieces of metal, rubbish or other solid objects. Such objects may also damage the MultiTool. Do not use the dethatcher MultiTool on gravel surfaces. WARNING Never divert discharge of material toward bystanders nor allow anyone near the area of operation. Use care in directing discharge to avoid damage to surfaces, automobiles, and the like. WARNING During work, check the tightness and the condition of the MutiTool at regular intervals with the engine and attachment stopped. If the behavior of the attachment changes during use, stop the engine immediately and check the attachment for cracks, wear and damage. Replace bent, worn or damaged attachments immediately. Such attachments may shatter at high speed and cause serious or fatal injury. WARNING The gearbox becomes hot during operation. To reduce the risk of burn injury, do not touch the gear housing when it is hot. MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND STORING WARNING Always stop the engine and make sure that the attachment is stopped before doing any maintenance or repair work or cleaning the power tool. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair work not described in your MultiEngine and MultiTool instruction manuals. Have such work performed at your STIHL servicing dealer only. WARNING Use only identical STIHL replacement parts for maintenance and repair. Use of non-STIHL parts may cause serious or fatal injury. WARNING Never repair damaged attachments by welding, straightening or modifying the shape. This may cause parts of the attachment to come off and result in serious or fatal injuries. Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws, except the carburetor adjustment screws, after each use. Do not clean your machine with a pressure washer. The solid jet of water may damage parts of the machine. Store the power tool in a dry and high or locked location out of reach of children. 8 MF-MM
