To reduce this risk, always engage the
chain brake before starting. Never
attempt to start the chainsaw when the
guide bar is in a cut or kerf. When you
pull the starter grip, do not wrap the
starting rope around your hands. Do not
allow the grip to snap back, but guide the
starter rope slowly back to permit the
rope to rewind properly. Failure to follow
this procedure may result in injury to
hand or fingers and may damage the
starter mechanism.

Warning!
Proper tension of the chain is extremely
important. In order to avoid improper
setting, the tensioning procedure must
be followed as described in your
manual. Always make sure the
hexagonal nut(s) for the sprocket cover
is (are) tightened securely after
tensioning the chain. Never start the saw
with the sprocket cover loose.
Check chain tension once more after
having tightened the nut(s) and
Important adjustments
thereafter at regular intervals (whenever
the saw is shut off). If the chain becomes
loose while cutting, shut off the engine
and then tighten. Never try to tighten the
chain while the engine is running! After
adjusting a chain, start the saw, let the
engine run for a while, then switch
engine off and recheck chain tension.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of personal injury from
loss of control or contact with the
running chain, do not use a saw with
incorrect idle adjustment. At correct idle
speed, the chain should not rotate. For
directions to adjust idle speed, see the
appropriate section of your owner's
manual . If you cannot set the correct
idle speed, have your STIHL dealer
check your saw and make proper
adjustments or repairs.
This method is very dangerous because
you may lose control of the saw. Place
the chainsaw on firm ground or other
solid surface in a clear area. Maintain
good balance and secure footing.

Warning!
Be sure that the guide bar and chain are

and objects, including the ground. When
the engine is started, the engine speed

be odorless and invisible. Operate your
chainsaw outdoors only in a well
ventilated area.
To reduce the risk of serious or fatal

gases, never work indoors or in
enclosed spaces since you may inhale
poisonous fumes.
