Preparation for the use of the saw
Your STIHL chainsaw uses an oil-gaso-

saw generally for items affecting safety
in operation. For assembly of the bar
and chain follow the procedure
described in "Mounting the Bar and
Chain" of your Owner's Manual.
STIHL chain, guide bar and sprocket
must match each other in gauge and
pitch.
Before replacing any bar or chain, see
the sections on "Specifications,"
"Kickback" and the "ANSI B 175.1-2000
chainsaw kickback standard" in this
manual.
