Safety Precautions and
Working Techniques
Special safety precau-
tions must be observed
when working with this
device because it is pow-
ered by electricity.
It is important that you
read the instruction man-
ual before first use and
keep it in a safe place for
future reference. Non-
observance of the
instruction manual may
result in serious or even
fatal injury. Always read
and observe the instruc-
tion manual of the power
tool to be tested.
During operation, follow the safety
instructions in the STIHL diagnostic
software.
Observe all applicable local safety
regulations, standards and ordinances.
Minors should never be allowed to use
an analyzer.
The user is responsible for avoiding
injury to third parties or damage to their
property.
Lend or rent your analyzer only together
with this instruction manual and only to
persons who are familiar with this model
and its operation.
Persons with pacemakers only: An
electromagnetic field of a very low
intensity is produced in combination with
the power tool being tested. This field
may interfere with some pacemakers.
STIHL recommends that persons with
pacemakers consult their physician and
the pacemaker manufacturer to reduce
any health risk.
The STIHL MDG 1 analyzer can be used
to test ignition modules and control units
and associated electrical components.
Use the analyzer only for testing STIHL
power tools made in 2000 and later.
The analyzer must not be used for any
other purpose because of the increased
risk of accidents and damage to the
analyzer.
Never attempt to modify your analyzer in
any way since this may increase the risk
of personal injury. STIHL excludes all
liability for personal injury and damage
to property caused while using
unauthorized power supply units,
adapters, cables, etc.
Depending on the test involved, the
engine of the power tool under test must
be started/switched on. Before starting
the test, always take precautions to
eliminate the risk of accidents and injury
from contact with the power tool's
attachment.
On chain saws and pole pruners:
Do not perform tests on
the running engine with
the standard saw chain.
Replace saw chain with a
cutterless chain (special
accessory).
