changing the saw chain or cleaning the
saw. Do not attempt any maintenance or
repair work not described in your
Owner’s Manual. Have such work perfor-
med at your STIHL service shop only.
!
Warning!
Never test the ignition system with
ignition wire terminal removed from spark
plug or with unseated spark plug, since
uncontained sparking may cause a fire.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury,
use only spark plugs authorized by
STIHL. Always press spark plug boot
snugly onto spark plug terminal of the
proper size. (Note: If terminal has
detachable SAE adapter nut, it must be
attached.) A loose connection between
spark plug terminal and ignition wire
connector in the boot may create arcing
that could ignite combustible fumes and
cause a fire. Keep spark plug clean, and
make sure ignition lead is in good
condition.
!
Warning!
Do not operate your chainsaw if the
muffler is damaged, missing or modified.
An improperly maintained muffler will
increase the risk of fire and hearing loss.
Never touch a hot muffler or burn will
result. If your muffler was equipped with
a spark-arresting screen to reduce the
risk of fire (e. g. in the USA, Canada and
Australia), never operate your saw if the
screen is missing or damaged. Remem-
ber that the risk of forest fires is greater
in hot or dry weather.
Keep the chain, bar and sprocket clean;
replace worn sprockets or chains.
Keep the chain sharp.
You can spot a dull chain when easy-to-
cut wood becomes hard to cut and burn
marks appear on the wood.
Keep the chain at proper tension. Tighten
all nuts, bolts and screws except the
carburetor adjustment screws after each
use.
!
Warning!
In order for the chain brake on your
STIHL chainsaw to properly perform its
function of reducing the risk of kickback
and other injuries, it must be properly
maintained. Like an automobile brake,
a chainsaw chain brake incurs wear
each time it is engaged.
The amount of wear will vary depending
upon usage, conditions under which the
saw is used and other factors. Excessive
wear will reduce the effectiveness of the
chain brake and can render it inoperable.
For the proper and effective operation of
the chain brake the brake band and
clutch drum must be kept free of dirt,
grease and other foreign matter which
may reduce friction of the band on the
drum.
For these reasons, each STIHL chain-
saw should be returned to trained
personnel such as your STIHL servicing
dealer for periodic inspection and
servicing of the brake system according
to the following schedule:
Heavy usage - every three months,
Moderate usage - twice a year,
Occasional usage - annually.
The chainsaw should also be returned
immediately for maintenance whenever
the brake system cannot be thoroughly
cleaned or there is a change in its
operating characteristics.
Additionally, the daily maintenance
schedule for your chainsaw set forth in
your STIHL Owner’s Manual should be
strictly followed.
Store chainsaw in a dry place and away
from children. Before storing for longer
than a few days, always empty the fuel
tank (see chapter "Storing the Machine"
in this manual).
For any maintenance please refer to the
maintenance chart and to the warranty
statement near the end of this manual.
