order to avoid the risk of accidents and damage
to the machine.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine STIHL
tools and accessories. They are specifically
designed to match the product and meet your
performance requirements.
The deflector on this power tool cannot protect
the operator from all objects thrown by the
attachment (stones, glass, wire, etc.). Ejected
objects may also ricochet and strike the operator.
Never attempt to modify your power tool in any
way since this may increase the risk of personal
injury. STIHL excludes all liability for personal
injury and damage to property caused while
using unauthorized attachments.
Do not use a high-pressure washer to clean the
power tool. The solid jet of water may damage
parts of the unit.
3.1 Clothing and Equipment
Wear proper protective clothing and equipment.
Clothing must be sturdy but allow
complete freedom of movement.
Wear close-fitting clothes such as a
boiler suit, not a loose jacket.

ped in wood, brush or moving parts of the
machine. Do not wear a scarf, necktie or jewelry.
Tie up and secure long hair above your should‐
ers.
Wear sturdy shoes with non-slip
soles.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of eye injuries,
wear close-fitting safety glasses in
accordance with European Standard
EN 166. Make sure the safety
glasses are a snug fit.
Wear "personal" sound protection, e.g. ear
defenders.
Wear sturdy protective gloves made
of a resistant material (e. g. leather).
STIHL offers a comprehensive range of personal
protective equipment.

erly secure your machine to prevent turnover,
damage and fuel spillage.
3.3 Before starting
Check that the power tool is in safe operating
condition. Refer to the appropriate chapters in
the MultiEngine or basic power tool and Multi‐
Tool User Manuals.
–Sweeping attachments: correctly installed,
secure and in perfect condition
–Both sweeping attachments must be mounted.
–Both deflector extensions fitted for bristle
brush.
3 Safety Precautions and Working Techniques English
0458-486-0121-B 3

–Inspect the deflectors for damage and wear.
Do not operate the machine with a damaged
deflector – replace damaged parts.
–Never attempt to modify the controls or safety
devices.
–Keep the handles dry and clean – free from oil
and dirt – this is important for safe control of
the machine.
–Swing the bike handle to the normal operating
position and tighten it down firmly with the
rotary knob. See chapter on "Adjusting the
Bike Handle" in the MultiEngine user manual.
The power tool must only be operated when it is
in good operating condition – Risk of accident!
Check the gearbox for correct position, adjust if
necessary. This helps reduce the risk of injury
from the MultiTool rotating in the wrong direction.
See also notes on "Mounting the MultiTool".
If you use sweeping attachments, position the
gearbox so that the axle is above the drive shaft.
Use this position for:
–KB-MM bristle brush
–KW-MM sweeper drum assembly
3.4 Holding and Guiding the Tool
Make sure you always have a firm and secure
footing.
469BA045 KN
002BA080 KN
Always hold the unit firmly with both hands on
the handles.
Right hand on control handle, left hand on grip
on handlebar.
3.5 While Working
In the event of impending danger or in an emer‐
gency, switch off the engine immediately by mov‐
ing the slide control / stop switch/button to
0 or STOP.
To reduce the risk of injury from contact with the
tool and ejected objects, do not allow any other
persons within a radius of 5 meters of your own
position.This distance must also be maintained in
relation to objects (vehicles, window panes) –
risk of property damage!
The correct engine idle speed is important to
ensure that the work tool stops moving when you
let go of the throttle trigger. Check and correct
the idle speed setting at regular intervals. If the
attachment still rotates when the engine is idling,
have your dealer repair it – see MultiEngine or
basic power tool User Manual.
English 3 Safety Precautions and Working Techniques
4 0458-486-0121-B

To reduce the risk of injury from thrown objects
or contact with the attachment, never operate the
unit without a properly mounted deflector
designed specifically for the unit and the attach‐
ment.
Always stand behind the deflector or to one side
of the machine during operation – never in front
of the attachment.
Electrostatic charges may build up when working
on synthetic surfaces – risk of electric shock and
accidents!
Dust, fumes and smoke produced
while working may be hazardous to
health! If dust levels are high, wear a
suitable respirator.
To reduce the risk of a dust explo‐
sion, spray very dusty surfaces with
water before sweeping.
Take special care in slippery conditions – damp,
snow, ice, on slopes or uneven ground!
To reduce the risk of accidents or injury, remove
all obstacles and objects from the work area.
Check the work site – rocks, metal
objects etc. may be caught up and
ejected – risk of injury!
Operate your power tool at normal walking pace
only.
Be extremely cautious when pulling the power
tool towards you because of the risk of injury
from contact with the rotating attachment.
Make sure you always have a firm and secure
footing.
Be extremely cautious when changing direction
with the power tool – especially on slopes.
On slopes, always work parallel to the gradient to
reduce the risk of injury from slipping or contact
with the attachment.
Never work on steep slopes because of the risk
of injury through loss of control of the power tool.
Special care must be taken when working in
overgrown terrain.
When clearing leaves, take care not to harm
small animals.
Be particularly alert and cautious when wearing
ear protection because your ability to hear warn‐
ings (shouts, alarms, etc.) is impaired.
Take breaks when you start getting tired or feel‐
ing fatigue – risk of accidents!
Work calmly and carefully – in daylight conditions
and only when visibility is good. Proceed with
caution, do not put others in danger.
If your power tool is subjected to unusually high
loads for which it was not designed (e.g. heavy
impact or a fall), always check that it is in good
condition before continuing work – see also
"Before Starting". Make sure the safety devices
are working properly. Never use a power tool
that is no longer safe to operate. In case of
doubt, contact a dealer.
Do not touch the attachment while the
engine is running. If the attachment
becomes jammed by an obstruction,
switch off the engine immediately
before attempting to remove the
obstruction – otherwise, risk of injury!
Opening the throttle while the attachment is
blocked increases the load and reduces engine
speed. The clutch then slips continuously and
this causes overheating and damage to impor‐
tant components (e.g. clutch, polymer housing
components) – and this can increase the risk of
injury from the attachment moving while the
engine is idling.
Check the sweeping attachments at regular short
intervals during operation or immediately if there
is a sudden change in behavior:
–Shut off the engine, hold the machine
securely.
–Check condition and proper mounting.
–Replace damaged sweeping attachments
immediately.
Clean the attachment and deflector at regular
intervals during operation.
–Shut off the engine
–Use gloves
–Remove debris from between the sweeping
attachments and from the area around the
gearbox and deflector.
To reduce the risk of injury, shut off the engine
before changing attachments.
3.6 After Finishing Work
After finishing work or before leaving the power
tool unattended: Shut off the engine.
3.7 Maintenance and Repairs
Service the machine regularly. Do not attempt
any maintenance or repair work not described in
the MultiTool and MultiEngine instruction man‐
uals. Have all other work performed by a servic‐
ing dealer.
