The long filter service life of STIHL air filters will ensure you can enjoy using your power tools for a long time to come. Clean filters increase engine performance, reduce fuel consumption and make it easier to start the petrol engine. By replacing the paper air filter regularly, you can reliably protect the engine of your clearing saw against the ingress of abrasive dust, helping tomaintain performance and keep fuel consumption low and ensuring that you can continue to start your STIHL clearing saw without difficulty.
You should also keep an eye on the fuel filterto ensure that no foreign particles can get into the engine through the fuel. Regular replacement of this component protects the engine and ensures a long service life. Replacing the spark plug is also recommended to ensure clean combustion in the engine and the optimal performance of your power tool.
You do not need any additional tools to perform these standard maintenance tasks. You can use the combination socket tool supplied with your STIHL brushcutter to replace the air filter and spark plug. A cardboard hook is integrated into the packaging of the service kit to remove the fuel filter.
