Check for fuel leakage while refueling
and during operation. If fuel or oil leakage
is found, do not start or run the engine
until leak is fixed and spilled fuel has
been wiped away. Take care not to get
fuel on your clothing. If this happens,
change your clothing immediately.

Unit vibrations can cause an improperly
tightened fuel cap to loosen or come off
and spill quantities of fuel. In order to re-
duce risk of fuel spillage and fire, tighten
fuel cap by hand with as much force as
possible.
The screwdriver end of
the STIHL combination
wrench or other similar
tool can be used as an aid
in tightening slotted fuel
caps.

start the saw without placing it on the
ground. Make sure the chain brake is

chainsaw firmly with your left hand.
Keep the arm on the front handle in a
locked (straight) position. Hold the rear
handle of the saw tightly between your
legs just above the knees. On "QS"
models, be careful not to disengage the
chain brake by depressing the interlock
lever with your leg. Maintain good
balance and secure footing. Pull the

until you feel a definite resistance and
then give it a brisk, strong pull.

Your chainsaw is a one-person saw.
Do not allow other persons to be near
the running chainsaw. Start and operate
your saw without assistance. For
specific starting instructions, see the
appropriate section of the Owner’s
Manual. Proper starting methods reduce
the risk of injury. Do not drop start. This
method is very dangerous because you
may lose control of the saw.
Grip the front handlebar of the saw firmly
with your left hand and press down.
For saws with a rear handle level with
the ground, put the toe of your right foot
into the rear handle and press down.
With your right hand pull out the starter
grip slowly until you feel a definite
resistance and then give it a brisk, strong
pull.
There are two recommended methods
for starting your chainsaw.
