1 Introduction

Thank you for your purchase. The information contained in
this manual will help you receive maximum performance and
satisfaction from your STIHL chain saw and, if followed,

SAVE THIS MANUAL!
Because a chain saw is a high-speed wood-

observed to reduce the risk of personal injury.
Read this instruction manual thoroughly before
use and periodically thereafter. Follow all safety
precautions. Careless or improper use of the
chain saw can cause serious or fatal injury.
Have your authorized STIHL servicing dealer show you how
to operate your chain saw. Observe all applicable federal,
state and local safety regulations, standards and
ordinances.
Do not lend or rent your chain saw without this instruction
manual. Allow only persons who have the proper training
and fully understand the information in this manual to
operate the chain saw.
