MAINTENANCE, REPAIR
AND STORING
Maintenance, replacement, or repair
of the emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any
nonroad engine repair establishment
or individual. However if you claim
warranty for a component which has
not been serviced or maintained pro-
perly or if nonapproved replacement
parts were used, STIHL may deny
warranty.
Never operate a chainsaw that is
damaged, improperly adjusted or not
completely or securely assembled.
Follow the maintenance and repair
instructions in the appropriate section of
your Owner’s Manual, especially those
in the chapters “Mounting the Bar and
Chain”, “Maintaining and Sharpening”
and “Chain Brake”.

3.
Cut only one log at a time.
5.
Logs under strain: Risk of pinching!
Always start relieving cut (1) at
compression side (A).
Shattered wood should be cut very
carefully. Sharp slivers of wood
may be caught and flung in the
direction of the operator of the saw.
Then make bucking cut (2) at
tension side (B).
!
If the saw pinches, stop the engine
and remove it from the log.
Warning!
Use only STIHL replacement parts for
maintenance and repair. Use of parts
manufactured by others may cause
serious or fatal injury.
4.
When cutting small logs, place log
through “V” - shaped supports on
top of a sawhorse. Never permit
another person to hold the log.
Never hold the log with your leg or
foot.
6.
7.
Only properly trained professionals
should work in an area where the
logs, limbs and roots are tangled.
Working in blowdown areas is
extremely hazardous.
!
Warning!
Always stop the engine and ensure that
the chain is stopped before making any
adjustments, maintenance or repair work,
Drag the logs into a clear area before
cutting. Pull out exposed and cleared
logs first.
