MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
STORING
I
f you claim warranty coverage for a
component which has not been
serviced or maintained properly or if
nonapproved replacement parts were
used, STIHL may deny warranty
coverage.
!
Warning!
Use only original STIHL replacement
parts for maintenance and repair. Use of
non-STIHL parts may cause serious or
fatal injury.
Follow the maintenance and repair
instructions in the appropriate section of
your owner's manual. Please refer to the
maintenance chart on the last pages of
this manual.
Additionally, the daily maintenance
schedule for your power tool set forth in
your STIHL instruction manual should
be strictly followed.

Warning!
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the cutting tool is stopped before
doing any maintenance or repair work or
cleaning the power tool. Do not attempt
any maintenance or repair work not
described in your instruction manual.
Have such work performed at your
STIHL service shop only.
Wear gloves when handling or
performing maintenance on attachment.
!
Warning!
Never repair damaged cutting attach-
ments by welding, straightening or
modifying the shape. This may cause
parts of the cutting tool to come off and
result in serious or fatal injuries.
Keep the cutting tool sharp. Tighten all
nuts, bolts and screws, except the
carburetor adjustment screws, after
each use.
Store the MultiTool in a dry and high or
locked location out of reach of children.
Before storing for longer than a few
days, always empty the fuel tank. See
chapter "Storing the Machine" in the
MultiEngine manual.

Using the Edger
Your FC-MM edger MultiTool is
designed to produce sharp contoured
borders around lawns. It will cut almost
all types of grass, weeds and soft green
plants.
Preparations
If the soil is very dry, spray it with water
before you start work: this softens the
soil a little and also reduces the amount
of dust created. Slightly damp green
plants are easier to cut.
