explosive atmosphere may cause a fire or an
explosion. This can result result in serious inju‐
ries or damage to property.
► Use resistor type spark plugs with a properly
tightened adapter nut.
28.3 Installing the spark plug
► Insert the spark plug through the grommet and
screw it in by hand.
► Tighten down the spark plug, fit the boot and
press it down firmly.
► Install the shroud – see "Shroud".

► Release chain brake – pull hand guard against
the front handle
30.1 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 pre‐
serve the chain sprocket.
STIHL recommends use of original STIHL chain
sprockets in order to ensure optimal functioning
of the chain brake.
