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
dethatcher MultiTool is a
powerful 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
instruction 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 dethatcher may be
hazardous. If the attachment tool comes
in contact with your body, it will injure
you. Solid foreign objects such as rocks
or bits of metal can damage the tool.
STIHL does not recommend the use of a
dethatcher 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 dethatcher run unattended.
Most of these safety precautions and
warnings apply to the use of all STIHL
dethatchers. 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.
Safety Precautions and
Working Techniques

4
English
MF-MM
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 judgment. 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 a
dethatcher.
!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 pressure 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 closely monitor 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 a dethatcher
unless wearing goggles or
properly fitted protective
glasses with adequate top
and side protection complying with
ANSI Z 87.1 (or your applicable national
standard).

5MF-MM
English
!Warning!
Dethatcher and engine
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
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 dethatcher
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 MF-MM DETHATCHER
MULTITOOL
For illustrations and definitions of the
dethatcher 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 DETHATCHER
Transporting the Dethatcher
!Warning!
Always turn off the engine and make
sure the attachment has stopped before
putting a dethatcher down. When
transporting your dethatcher in a
vehicle, properly secure it to prevent
turnover, fuel spillage and damage to the
dethatcher.
Prepartions before Using the Power
Tool
Before starting work, swing the
handlebar into the normal working
position and tighten it down with the
rotary knob. See chapter on "Adjusting
Handlebar" in the MultiEngine
instruction manual.
Always check your dethatcher for proper
condition and operation before starting,
particularly the throttle trigger, throttle
trigger interlock (and if applicable stop
switch), attachment and deflector.
The throttle trigger must move freely and
always spring back in the idle position.
The attachment must be properly
tightened and in safe operating
condition. Inspect for loose parts (nuts,
screws, etc.) and for cracked, bent,
warped or damaged parts.
