This manual contains the safety
precautions and recommended cutting
techniques outlined in STIHL instruction
manuals for gasoline-powered
chainsaws. Even if you are an
experienced chainsaw user, it is in your
own interest to familiarize yourself with
the latest instructions and safety
precautions regarding your chainsaw.
Please note that the illustrations in the
chapter “Main Parts of the Saw“ in this
manual show the chainsaws STIHL
MS 210, 230, 250.
Other chainsaw models may have
different parts and controls. You should
therefore always refer to the instruction
manual of your particular saw model.
!Warning!
Avoid contact of bar tip with any object.
This can cause the guide bar to kick
suddenly up and back, which may result
in serious or fatal injury. To reduce the
risk of kickback injury STIHL recom-
mends the use of STIHL green labeled
reduced kickback bars and low kickback
chains and a STIHL Quickstop chain
brake.
Contact your STIHL dealer or the STIHL
distributor for your area if you do not
understand any of the instructions in this
manual.
