For periods of about 3 months or longer:
: Remove and clean the saw chain
and guide bar, spray with corrosion
inhibiting oil.
: Thoroughly clean the machine,
paying special attenton to the
cooling slots.
: If you use biological chain and bar
lubricant, e.g. STIHL Bioplus,
completely fill the chain oil tank.
: Store the machine in a dry, high or
locked location – out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
: Disconnect the plug from the power
supply.
: Remove the chain sprocket cover,
chain and guide bar.
Replace the chain sprocket:
– after using two chains or sooner
– if the wear marks (arrow) on the
sprocket are deeper than approx.
0.02 in (0.5 mm) since this would
reduce the life of the chain. Use a
gauge (special accessory) to check
the depth of the wear marks.
It is best to use two chains in
rotation with one sprocket.
Use only original STIHL chain sprockets.
: Remove the E-clip (1) from the
shaft.
: Remove and inspect the washer (2)
– replace if there are signs of wear.
: Remove the chain sprocket (3).
: Install the new chain sprocket in the
reverse sequence.
