THE SAW
Parts of the chainsaw; for illustrations
and definitions of the parts see the
chapter on "Main Parts of Saw".
By vehicle: The chain guard must be
fitted on the guide bar when transporting
the saw in a vehicle. The saw should be
secured so that it cannot move and
become damaged, or cause damage.
!
Warning!
Never modify a chainsaw in any way.
Only attachments and parts supplied by
STIHL or expressly approved by STIHL
for use with the specific STIHL saw
models are authorized. Although certain
unauthorized attachments are usable
with the STIHL powerhead, their use
may, in fact, be extremely dangerous.
Preparation for the use of the saw
Always disconnect the plug when the
saw is not in use. Take off the chain
guard and inspect for safety in
operation. Insure that the trigger switch
will not engage when the trigger
interlock is not pressed. For assembly,
follow the procedure described in the
chapter "Mounting the Bar and Chain" of
your Owner's Manual.
THE USE OF THE SAW
Transporting the chainsaw
STIHL Oilomatic chain, guide bar and
sprocket must match each other in
gauge and pitch.
!
Warning!
By hand: When carrying the chain saw
by hand, it must be switched off and the
saw held in the proper position, i.e. it
should be gripped by the front handle.
The chain guard must be fitted, even
when carrying the saw only a short
distance, and the guide bar must point
backwards, away from the direction in
which you are going.
Before replacing any bar and chain, see
the sections on "Specifications",
"Kickback" and the "ANSI B 175.1-2000
chainsaw kickback standard" in this
manual.
Always fully release the trigger switch
and make sure the chain has stopped
moving before putting the saw down or
carrying it. When carrying the saw over
longer distances, disconnect the plug
and reposition the extension cord.
Do not carry the machine by the power
cable. Carry the cable in your hand. If
the cable is dragged on a rough surface
(concrete etc.) the cable may become
damaged.
