Warning!
Avoid stumbling on obstacles such as
stumps, roots or rocks and watch out for
holes or ditches. Clear the area where
you are working. Be extremely cautious
when working on slopes or uneven
ground. There is increased danger of
slipping on freshly debarked logs.
Your chainsaw is equipped with a chain
catcher. It is designed to reduce the risk
of personal injury in the event of a thrown
or broken chain. From time to time the
catcher may be damaged or removed.
To reduce the risk of personal injury,
do not operate a chainsaw with a

Warning!
Breathing asbestos dust is dangerous
and can cause severe or fatal injury, re-
spiratory illness or cancer. The use and
disposal of asbestos containing products
have been strictly regulated by OSHA
and the Environmental Protection Agen-
cy. Do not cut or disturb asbestos, asbe-
stos containing products (e.g. asbestos
containing drywall or other construction
products), or products such as pipes
which are wrapped or covered with asbe-
stos insulation. If you have any reason
to believe that you might be cutting asbe-

A “sponginess” in the feel of the saw,
increased vibration or increased
“bottoming” during normal operation
may indicate damage, breakage or
excessive wear. Buffers should always
be replaced in sets. If you have any
questions as to whether the buffers
should be replaced, consult your STIHL
servicing dealer.
Even for those compact saws designed
for use in confined spaces, one-handed
operation is dangerous because the
operator may lose control.
The muffler and other parts of the engine
(e.g. fins of the cylinder, spark plug)
become hot during operation and remain
hot for a while after stopping the engine.
To reduce risk of burns do not touch the
