English / USA
Equipment and features
This instruction manual may refer to
several models with different
features. Components that are not
installed on all models and related
applications are marked with an
asterisk (*). Such components may
be available as special accessories
from your STIHL dealer.
Engineering improvements
STIHL’s philosophy is to continually
improve all of its products. As a result,
engineering changes and improvements
are made from time to time. If the
operating characteristics or the
appearance of your machine differ from
those described in this manual, please
contact your STIHL dealer for
assistance.
Therefore some changes, modifications
and improvements may not be covered
in this manual.
Warning!
Because a MultiEngine
equipped with an edger
MultiTool is a high-speed,
fast-cutting power tool,
special safety precautions
must be observed to
reduce the risk of personal injury.
It is important that you
read, fully understand and
observe the following
safety precautions and
warnings. Read the
owner's manuals and the
safety instructions of your MultiEngine
and MultiTool periodically. Careless or
improper use of any power tool may
cause serious or fatal injury.
Have your STIHL dealer show you how
to operate your power tool. Observe all
applicable local safety regulations,
standards and ordinances.
!Warning!
Do not lend or rent your power tool
without the instruction manuals. Be sure
that anyone using your power tool
understands the information contained
in these manuals.
!Warning!
The use of any edger may be
hazardous. If the rotating cutting tool
comes in contact with your body, it will
cut you. When it comes in contact with
solid foreign objects such as rocks or
bits of metal, it may fling them directly or
by ricochet in the direction of bystanders
or the operator.
Striking such objects could damage the
cutting attachment and may cause
blades to crack, chip or break.
STIHL does not recommend the use of
an edger when cutting in stony areas.
!Warning!
Minors should never be allowed to use a
power tool. Bystanders, especially
children, and animals should not be
allowed in the area where a power tool is
in use!
Never let the edger run unattended.
Safety Precautions and
Working Techniques

4
English / USA
FC-MM
Most of these safety precautions and
warnings apply to the use of all STIHL
edgers. Different models may have
different parts and controls. See the
appropriate sections of your MultiEngine
and MultiTool instruction manuals for a
description of the controls and function
of the parts of your power tool model.
Safe use of a power tool involves
1. the operator
2. the power tool
3. the use of the power tool.
THE OPERATOR
Physical Condition
You must be in good physical condition
and mental health and not under the
influence of any substance (drugs,
alcohol, etc.) which might impair vision,
dexterity or judgement. Do not operate a
power tool when you are fatigued.
Be alert – if you get tired while operating
your power tool, take a break. Tiredness
may result in loss of control. Working
with any power tool can be strenuous. If
you have any condition that might be
aggravated by strenuous work, check
with your doctor before operating an
edger.
!Warning!
Prolonged use of a power tool (or other
machines) exposing the operator to
vibrations may produce whitefinger
disease (Raynaud's phenomenon) or
carpal tunnel syndrome.
These conditions reduce the hand's
ability to feel and regulate temperature,
produce numbness and burning
sensations and may cause nerve and
circulation damage and tissue necrosis.
All factors which contribute to white-
finger disease are not known, but cold
weather, smoking and diseases or
physical conditions that affect blood
vessels and blood transport, as well as
high vibration levels and long periods of
exposure to vibration are mentioned as
factors in the development of whitefinger
disease. In order to reduce the risk of
whitefinger disease and carpal tunnel
syndrome, please note the following:
– Wear gloves and keep your hands
warm.
– Maintain a firm grip at all times, but
do not squeeze the handles with
constant, excessive pressures and
take frequent breaks.
All the above mentioned precautions do
not guarantee that you will not sustain
whitefinger disease or carpal tunnel
syndrome. Therefore continual and
regular users should monitor closely the
condition of their hands and fingers. If
any of the above symptoms appear,
seek medical advice immediately.
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 an edger unless
wearing goggles or
properly fitted safety
glasses with adequate top
and side protection complying with
ANSI Z 87.1 (or your applicable national
standard).

5FC-MM
English / USA
!Warning!
Edger 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.
Protect your hands with
gloves when handling the
power tool and the cutting
attachment. Heavy-duty,
nonslip gloves improve
your grip and protect your
hands.
Clothing must be sturdy
and snug-fitting, but allow
complete freedom of
movement.
Avoid loose-fitting jackets,
scarves, neckties, jewelry,
flared or cuffed pants,
unconfined long hair or
anything that could
become caught on
branches, brush or moving parts of the
unit.
Wear long pants made of heavy material
to protect your legs. Do not wear shorts,
pants, sandals or go bare foot. Secure
hair so it is above shoulder level.
Good footing is most
important in edger work.
Wear sturdy boots with
nonslip soles. Steel-toed
safety boots are
recommended.
Wear an approved safety
hard hat to reduce the risk
of injury to your head
when there is a danger of
head injuries.
THE EDGER MULTITOOL
For illustrations and definitions of the
edger MultiTool parts see the chapter on
"Main Parts".
!Warning!
Never modify a MultiTool in any way.
Only attachments supplied by STIHL or
expressly approved by STIHL for use
with the specific STIHL power tool
models are authorized. Although certain
unauthorized attachments may be
useable on the STIHL power tool, their
use may, in fact, be extremely
dangerous.
THE USE OF THE EDGER
Transporting the edger
!Warning!
Always turn off the engine and make
sure the rotating attachment has
stopped before putting an edger down.
When transporting your edger in a
vehicle, properly secure it to prevent
turnover, fuel spillage and damage to the
edger.
Preparations before using the power
tool
Before starting work, set the handlebar
to the normal working position and
tighten it down firmly with the rotary
knob. See chapter on "Adjusting the
Handlebar" in the MultiEngine
instruction manual.
Always check your edger for proper
condition and operation before starting,
particularly the throttle trigger, throttle
trigger interlock (and if applicable stop
switch, cutting tool and deflector).
The throttle trigger must move freely and
always spring back in the idle position.
The cutting tool must be properly
tightened and in safe operating
condition. Inspect for loose parts (nuts,
screws, etc.) and for cracked, bent,
warped or damaged parts.

Fueling
Your STIHL edger uses an oil-gasoline
mixture for fuel. For further instructions
see the safety precautions and the
chapter on "Fuel" in the MultiEngine
instruction manual.
!Warning!
Gasoline is an extremely
flammable fuel. If spilled
and ignited by a spark or
other ignition source, it
can cause fire and serious
burn injury or property
damage. Use extreme caution when
handling gasoline or fuel mix.
Do not smoke or bring any fire or flame
near the fuel or edger.
Operating notes
The power tool may only be used for the
jobs described in the owner's manual.
!Warning!
Your power tool is a one-person
machine.
To reduce the risk of eye and other injury
insure that bystanders are at least 16 ft
(5 m) away. Bystanders should be
encouraged to wear eye protection. Stop
the engine and cutting tool immediately
if you are approached. Start and operate
your edger without assistance.
Before Starting
Always check your power tool for proper
condition and operation before starting –
refer to appropriate sections in the
instruction manuals.
!Warning!
To reduce risk of injury from MultiTool
rotating in the wrong direction, check
that the position of the gearbox is correct
and change it if necessary.
On metal tools (top illustration), position
the gearbox so that the shaft is below
the drive tube.
On sweeping tools (bottom illustration),
position the gearbox so that the shaft is
above the drive tube.

area. The attachments must be clear of
the ground and all other obstructions.
!Warning!
When starting, make sure you have a
firm footing - as shown; always stand to
one side of the machine to avoid risk of
injury from contact with rotating tool.
!Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury
from loss of control, be
absolutely sure that the
cutting tool can turn freely
when the engine is
started. When the engine
is started in the START position, engine
speed will be fast enough for the clutch
to engage and turn the cutting tool.
Working Conditions
Start and operate your power tool only
outdoors in a ventilated area.
Operate the edger under good visibility
and daylight conditions only. Work
carefully.
!Warning!
Your edger produces toxic
exhaust fumes as soon as
the engine is running.
These gases (e.g. carbon
monoxide) may be
colorless and odorless. To
reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury
from inhaling toxic fumes, never run the
edger indoors or in poorly ventilated
locations.
