Extension Cords

If an extension cord is used, the cross sectional
area of its conductors must meet the following
minimum requirements – depending on the line
voltage and length of the extension cord:
If rated voltage on the rating label is 220V to
240V:
– Cord length up to 20 m: AWG 15 / 1.5 mm²
– Cord length 20 m up to 50 m: AWG 13 /
2.5 mm²
If rated voltage on the rating label is 100V to
127V:
– Cord length up to 10 m: AWG 14 / 2.0 mm²
– Cord length 10 m up to 30 m: AWG 12 /
3.5 mm²

WARNING
■ The battery is not protected against all ambi‐
ent conditions. If the battery is exposed to cer‐
tain environmental conditions, it may catch fire
or explode. This may result in serious injury to
people and damage to property.
► Do not charge and use the battery or
charger below -20°C or above 50°C.
► Do not store the battery or charger below
-20°C or above 70°C.
► Do not use the pressure washer below 0°C
or above 50°C.
► Do not store the pressure washer below
0°C or above 70°C.
20.6 Recommended temperature
ranges
For optimum performance of the pressure
washer, battery and charger, observe the follow‐
ing temperature ranges:
– Pressure washer:
– Use: 0°C to 40°C
– Storage: 0°C to 50°C
0458-048-9601-A
– Battery and charger:
– Charging: 5°C to 40°C
– Use: -10°C to 40°C
– Storage: -20°C to +50°C
If the battery is charged, used or stored outside
the recommended temperature ranges, perform‐
ance may be restricted.
If the battery is wet or moist, allow the battery to
dry for at least 48 h between 15°C and 50°C and
with less than 70% humidity. Higher humidity
may extend the drying time.
20.7 Sound and vibration values
The K-value for the sound pressure level is
2 dB(A). The K value for the sound power level is
2 dB(A). The K value for the vibration level is
2 m/s².
STIHL recommends wearing hearing protection.
– Sound power level L
EN 60335-2-79: 84 dB(A)
– Vibration level a measured in accordance
hv
with EN 60335‑2‑79, fan-jet nozzle: ≤ 2.5 m/s².
The sound and vibration values indicated were
measured according to a standardized test
method and can be used as a basis for compar‐
ing electric power tools. The actual sound and
vibration levels may vary from the values indica‐
ted, depending on the type of application and the
accessories used. The sound and vibration lev‐
els indicated can be used for an initial estimate
of the sound and vibration load. The actual
sound and vibration stress has to be estimated.
The times can be taken into account in the esti‐
mate when the electric power tool is switched off
and also when it is switched on but running with‐
out any load.
