cutting attachments with corrosion
inhibitor.
N Thoroughly clean the machine – pay
special attention to the cylinder fins
and air filter.
N Store the machine in a dry and
secure location – out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
N Use a sharpening file (see "Special
Accessories") to sharpen dull
cutting attachments. In case of
more serious wear or nicks:
Resharpen with a grinder or have
the work done by a dealer – STIHL
recommends a STIHL servicing
dealer.
N Sharpen frequently, take away as
little metal as possible – two or three
strokes of the file are usually
enough.
N Resharpen the teeth (1) uniformly –
do not alter the contour of the parent
blade (2) in any way.
See cutting attachment packaging for
additional sharpening instructions. Keep
the packaging for future reference.
