Safety Precautions and
Working Techniques
Because a KombiEngine
equipped with a bed
redefiner KombiTool is a
high-speed power tool,
special safety precau-
tions must be observed to
reduce the risk of per-
sonal injury.
It is important that you
read, fully understand
and observe the following
safety precautions and
warnings. Read the
instruction manuals and
the safety precautions of
your KombiEngine and
KombiTool periodically.
Careless or improper use
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
As more fully explained later in these
Safety Precautions, to reduce the risk of
personal injury, make sure your unit is
equipped with the proper handle,
harness (if applicable), skirt and
deflector. Use only cutting attachments
that are specifically authorized by STIHL
for use on your KombiEngine model.

WARNING
Do not lend or rent your power tool
without the instruction manuals of your
KombiEngine and KombiTool. Be sure
that anyone using it understands the
information contained in these manuals.
WARNING
The use of this machine may be
hazardous. If the rotating blade 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.
Thrown objects, including broken
blades, may result in serious or fatal
injury to the operator or bystanders.
Do not use the bed redefiner on hard
grounds or for wet soil.
Use your KombiEngine equipped with
the bed redefiner KombiTool only for
redefining existing flower bed edges.
WARNING
Do not use it for other purposes, since
misuse may result in personal injury or
property damage, including damage to
the machine.
WARNING
Minors should never be allowed to use
this power tool. Bystanders, especially
children, and animals should not be
allowed in the area where it is in use.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to bystanders
and damage to property, never let your
power tool run unattended. When it is
not in use (e.g. during a work break),
shut it off and make sure that
unauthorized persons can not use it.
Most of these safety precautions and
warnings apply to the use of all STIHL
bed redefiners. Different models may
have different parts and controls. See
the appropriate section of your
KombiEngine and KombiTool instruction
manuals for a description of the controls
and the function of the parts of your
model.
Safe use of a power tool involves
1. the operator
2. the power tool
3. the use of the power tool.
