The announcement notes that the level of ethanol and other fuel additives can distort the shape of fuel cap, allowing fuel to spill, posing a fire and burn hazard.
The products recalled are: Gas powered STIHL trimmers, brushcutters, KombiMotors, hedge trimmers, edgers, clearing saws, pole pruners, and backpack blowers that utilize a tool-less fuel cap.
