Checking and Replacing
the Chain Sprocket
N
Remove chain sprocket cover, saw
chain and guide bar.
N Release chain brake – pull hand
guard against the front handle
Fit new chain sprocket
– after use of two saw chains or
earlier
– if the wear marks (arrows) are
deeper than 0.5 mm – otherwise the
service life of the saw chain is
reduced – use check gauge (special
accessory) to test
Using two saw chains in alternation
helps preserve the chain sprocket.
STIHL recommends use of original
STIHL chain sprockets in order to
ensure optimal functioning of the chain
brake.
