WARNING
Never modify this power tool in any way.
Only attachments supplied by STIHL or
expressly approved by STIHL for use
with the specific STIHL model are
authorized. Although certain
unauthorized attachments, drills and
augers are useable with STIHL power
tools, their use may, in fact, be
extremely dangerous.
If this 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. Check in particular that
the fuel system is tight (no leaks) and
that the controls and safety devices are
working properly. Do not continue
operating this machine if it is damaged.
In case of doubt, have it checked by your
STIHL servicing dealer.
THE USE OF THE POWER TOOL
Transporting the Power Tool
WARNING
Always stop the engine before putting
the power drill down or carrying it.
Carrying a power drill with the engine
running is dangerous. Accidental
acceleration of the engine can cause the
drilling tool to rotate.
WARNING
During operation, the powerhead muffler
and the material around it reach
extremely high temperatures. Avoid
BT 45
setting down a hot unit onto dry,
flammable material, or touching the hot
muffler, you could receive serious burns.
Carry the power drill with the drilling tool
pointing down or using a carry strap with
the drilling tool pointing to the rear – with
the hot muffler away from your body.
Remove the drilling tool before
transporting the power tool long
distances.
When transporting in a vehicle, properly
secure your power tool to prevent
turnover, fuel spillage and damage.
When the power tool is not in use, shut it
off and put it down so it cannot endanger
others.
Fuel
Your STIHL power tool uses an oil-
gasoline mixture for fuel (see the
chapter on "Fuel" of your 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 seri-
ous 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 the power
tool. Note that combus-
tible fuel vapor may
escape from the fuel
system.
Fueling Instructions
WARNING
Fuel your power tool in well-ventilated
areas, outdoors. Always shut off the
engine and allow it to cool before
refueling. Gasoline vapor pressure may
build up inside the fuel tank depending
on the fuel used, the weather conditions
and the tank venting system.
In order to reduce the risk of burns and
other personal injury from escaping gas
vapor and fumes, remove the fuel filler
cap on your power tool carefully so as to
allow any pressure build-up in the tank
to release slowly. Never remove the fuel
filler cap while the engine is running.
Flip up the lever and slowly turn left (1)
to the vent position of the cap at about
1/8 turn where the cap is held in place by
the thread. Once the fumes have been
relieved, turn (2) the cap further to the
1/4 turn position where the tool-less cap
can be removed from the tank thread.
Never remove the fuel filler cap by
quickly turning it to the full 1/4 open
position without letting it vent out any
vapor/pressure build-up at the
1/8 position.
