N Check the lubricant level at regular
intervals of about every 25 hours of
operation. Unscrew the filler
plug (2) – if no grease can be seen
on the inside of the filler plug, screw
the tube of grease into the filler hole.
N Squeeze up to 5 g (1/5 oz) grease
into the gearbox.
NOTICE
Do not completely fill the gearbox with
grease.
N Refit the filler plug and tighten it
down firmly.
To help prolong the wear life of the
starter rope, observe the following
points:
N Pull the starter rope only in the
direction specified.
N Do not pull the rope over the edge of
the guide bushing.
N Do not pull out the rope more than
specified.
N Do not allow the starter grip to snap
back, guide it back into the housing
slowly – see chapter on "Starting /
Stopping the Engine."
Have a damaged starter rope replaced
by your dealer before it breaks
completely. STIHL recommends that
you have servicing and repair work
carried out exclusively by an authorized
STIHL servicing dealer.
When cutting performance and behavior
begin to deteriorate, i.e. blades
frequently snag on branches:
Resharpen the cutting blades.
It is best to have the cutting blades
resharpened by a dealer on a workshop
sharpener. STIHL recommends a STIHL
servicing dealer.
It is also possible to use a flat crosscut
sharpening file. Hold the sharpening file
at the prescribed angle (see
"Specifications").
N Only sharpen the cutting edge – do
not file blunt projecting parts of the
cutting blade or the cutting blade
guard (see "Main Parts and
Controls")
N Always file towards the cutting
edge.
N The file only sharpens on the
forward stroke – lift it off the blade
on the backstroke.
N Use a whetstone to remove burr
from cutting edge.
N Remove as little material as
possible.
N After sharpening, clean away filing
or grinding dust and then spray the
cutting blades with STIHL resin
solvent.
NOTICE
Do not operate your machine with dull or
damaged cutting blades. This may
cause overload and will give
unsatisfactory cutting results.
