Warning!
Since a muffler with a
catalytic converter cools
down less rapidly than
conventional mufflers,
never set your chainsaw
down on or near dry
brush, grass, wood chips or other
combustible materials while it is still hot.
Let the engine cool down sitting on
concrete, metal, bare ground or solid
wood (e.g. the trunk of a felled tree)
away from any combustible substances.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of fire or burn injury,
let the unit cool down before refueling
your chainsaw after use.
!
Warning!
Never disassemble or modify your
muffler. The muffler could be damaged
and cause an increase in heat radiation
or sparks, thereby increasing the risk of
fire or burn injury. You may also
permanently damage the engine. Have
your muffler serviced and repaired by
your STIHL Servicing Dealer only.

!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of fire or burn injury,
keep the area around the muffler clean.
Remove all debris such as pine needles,
branches or leaves.
!
Warning!
An improperly mounted or damaged
cylinder housing or a damaged/
deformed muffler shell may interfere
with the cooling effect of the catalytic
converter. To reduce the risk of fire or
burn injury, do not continue work with a
damaged or improperly mounted
cylinder housing or a damaged/
deformed muffler shell. Your catalytic
converter is furnished with screens
designed to reduce the risk of fire from
the emission of hot particles. Due to the
heat from the catalytic reaction, these
screens will normally stay clean and
need no service or maintenance. If you
experience loss of performance and you
suspect a clogged screen, have your
muffler maintained by a STIHL Servicing
Dealer.
Working Conditions
Operate the chainsaw under good
visibility and daylight conditions only.

Warning!
Your chainsaw produces
poisonous exhaust fumes
as soon as the
combustible engine is
running. These gases
(e.g. carbon monoxide)
may be colorless and odorless. To
reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury
from breathing toxic fumes, never run
the chainsaw indoors or in poorly
ventilated locations. Ensure proper
ventilation when working in trenches or
other confined areas.
!
Warning!
Use of this product (including sharpen-
ing the saw chain) can generate dust,
mists and fumes containing chemicals
known to cause respiratory disease,
cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. If you are unfamiliar
with the risks associated with the
particular dust, mist or fume at issue,
consult your employer, governmental
agencies such as OSHA and NIOSH
and other sources on hazardous
materials. California and some other
authorities, for instance, have published
lists of substances known to cause
cancer, reproductive toxicity, etc. Control
dust (such as sawdust), mists (such as
oil mist from chain lubrication) and
fumes at the source where possible.
