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.
For periods of 3 months or longer
N Drain and clean the fuel tank in a
well ventilated area.
N Dispose of fuel properly in
accordance with local
environmental requirements.
N Run the engine until the carburetor
is dry – this helps prevent the
carburetor diaphragms sticking
together.
N Remove the saw chain and guide
bar, clean them and spray with
corrosion inhibiting oil.
N Thoroughly clean the machine – pay
special attention to the cylinder fins
and air filter.
N If you use a biological chain and bar
lubricant, e.g. STIHL BioPlus,
completely fill the chain oil tank.
N Store the machine in a dry, high or
locked location, out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
N Remove chain sprocket cover, saw
chain and guide bar.
N Release chain brake – pull hand
guard against the front handle
Fit new chain sprocket
– after use of two saw chains or
earlier
– if the wear marks (arrows) are
deeper than 0.02 in (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 preserve the chain sprocket.
Use only STIHL original chain sprockets
to help ensure reliable functioning of the
chain brake.
