The Power Tool
To avoid serious burn injuries, avoid
touching hot parts of the machine,
especially the surface of the muffler.
Never attempt to modify your power tool
in any way since this may increase the
risk of personal injury. STIHL excludes
all liability for personal injury and
damage to property caused while using
unauthorized attachments.
Transporting the Chainsaw
Always engage the chain brake and fit
the chain guard (scabbard) before
carrying the saw short distances. Also
stop the engine before carrying the saw
longer distances (more than
about 50 m).

Always carry the saw by the control
handle – with the hot muffler away from
your body – the guide bar must point to
the rear.
In vehicles: Properly secure your power
tool to prevent turnover, fuel spillage and
damage.
Cleaning the Power Tool
Do not use a pressure washer to clean
the power tool. The solid jet of water
may damage parts of the power tool.
Storing the Power Tool
When the power tool is not in use, shut it
off so that it does not endanger others.
Secure it against unauthorized use.
Accessories and Spare Parts
Only use tools, guide bars, chains, chain
sprockets and accessories that are
explicitly approved for this power tool
model by STIHL or are technically
identical. If you have any questions in
this respect, consult a servicing dealer.
Use only high quality parts and
accessories in order to avoid the risk of
accidents and damage to the machine.
STIHL recommends the use of STIHL
original tools, guide bars, chains, chain
sprockets and accessories. They are
specifically designed to match the
product and meet your performance
requirements.
Fueling
Gasoline is an extremely
flammable fuel. Keep
clear of naked flames. Do
not spill any fuel – do not
smoke.
Always shut off the engine before
refueling.
Do not fuel a hot engine – fuel may spill
and cause a fire.
Open the fuel cap carefully to allow any
pressure build-up in the tank to release
slowly and avoid fuel spillage.
Fuel your power tool only in well-
ventilated areas. If you spill fuel, wipe
the saw immediately. If fuel gets on your
clothing, change immediately.
Insert the fuel cap with
hinged grip (bayonet-type
cap) correctly in the
opening, turn it as far as
stop and fold the grip
down.
This reduces the risk of unit vibrations
causing the fuel cap to loosen or come
off and spill quantities of fuel.
Check for leakage. To
reduce the risk of serious
of fatal burn injuries, do
not start or run the engine
until leak is fixed.
