Allow only persons who fully understand 
this Manual to operate your chain saw.

To receive maximum performance and 
satisfaction from your STIHL chain saw, 
it is important that you read and 
understand and follow the maintenance 
and safety precautions in chapter 
"Safety Precautions and Working 
Techniques" before using your chain 
saw. For further information you can go 
to www.stihlusa.com.

Contact your STIHL dealer or the STIHL 
distributor for your area if you do not 
understand any of the instructions in this 
manual.

Warning!

Because a chain saw is a high-speed 
wood-cutting tool, some special safety 
precautions must be observed as with 
any other power saw to reduce the risk 
of personal injury.

Careless or improper use may cause 
serious or even fatal injury.

STIHL's philosophy is to continually 
improve all of its products. As a result, 
engineering changes and improvements 
may be made from time-to-time. If the 
operating characteristics or the 
appearance of your chain saw differs 
from those described in this manual, 
please contact your STIHL dealer for 
information and assistance.
