English / USA !Warning! Dust may collect on the powerhead, especially around the carburetor, and may absorb gasoline resulting in danger of fire. Clean dust from the powerhead regularly. Abrasive Wheels !Warning! Before mounting the cutting wheel, make sure that the maximum operating wheel speed is above or equal to the spindle speed of your cut-off machine as provided in the Specifications of this manual. A wheel that is not so rated may shatter or break and poses a threat of serious or fatal injury to the operator and other nearby persons. Abrasive wheels for free-hand cutting are subjected to particularly high bending and compression stresses. !Warning! Unauthorized wheels may be more likely to shatter or break. Use only STIHL wheels or other authorized wheels with approved RPM ratings. Read and follow any addional safety precautions that accompany the wheel. !Warning! Inspect the abrasive wheel frequently and replace immediately if the abrasive wheel is cracked or warped. Cracked or warped wheels may shatter or break and cause serious or fatal personal injury. Out-of-round or unbalanced abrasive wheels increase vibration and reduce the service life of the cut-off machine. Abrasive wheels are heat sensitive. Always store your cut-off machine in a place where the cutting wheel is not exposed to direct sunlight or other sources of heat. Store spare cutting wheels in a dry place where there is no risk of frost damage. Failure to follow these directions may cause the wheel to shatter or crack in use causing serious or fatal injury. !Warning! Never use circular saw blades, carbide tipped blades, rescue blades, wood-cutting blades or toothed blades of any nature. They can cause severe personal injury from blade contact, thrown objects and/or reactive forces, including kickback. See section on "Reactive Forces." Your STIHL dealer stocks a range of special abrasive wheels for the many applications of the cut-off machine. !Warning! Use of the wrong abrasive wheel or the cutting of material for which the wheel was not designed may cause the wheel to shatter causing serious or fatal injury. Only use the abrasive wheel approved for the type of material to be cut. There are different abrasive wheels, each specially marked. For example: 6 TS 400

Abrasive Wheels
!
Warning!
Before mounting the cutting wheel,
make sure that the maximum operating
wheel speed is above or equal to the
spindle speed of your cut-off machine as
provided in the Specifications of this
manual. A wheel that is not so rated may
shatter or break and poses a threat of
serious or fatal injury to the operator and
other nearby persons.
Abrasive wheels for free-hand cutting
are subjected to particularly high
bending and compression stresses.
!
Warning!
Unauthorized wheels may be more likely
to shatter or break. Use only STIHL
wheels or other authorized wheels with
approved RPM ratings. Read and follow
any addional safety precautions that
accompany the wheel.
!
Warning!
Inspect the abrasive
wheel frequently and
replace immediately if the
abrasive wheel is cracked
or warped. Cracked or
warped wheels may
shatter or break and cause serious or
fatal personal injury. Out-of-round or
unbalanced abrasive wheels increase
vibration and reduce the service life of
the cut-off machine.
Abrasive wheels are heat sensitive.
Always store your cut-off machine in a
place where the cutting wheel is not
exposed to direct sunlight or other
sources of heat. Store spare cutting
wheels in a dry place where there is no
risk of frost damage. Failure to follow
these directions may cause the wheel to
shatter or crack in use causing serious
or fatal injury.
