Storing the Machine

For periods of about 3 months or longer:
: Drain and clean the fuel tank in a
well ventilated area.
: Dispose of remaining fuel and
cleaning solution properly in
accordance with local
environmental requirements.
: Run engine until carburetor is dry,
this helps prevent the carburetor
diaphragms sticking together.
: Remove the saw chain and guide
bar, clean them and spray with
corrosion inhibiting oil.
: Thoroughly clean the unit,
pay special attention to the cylinder
fins and air filter.
: If you use a biological chain and bar
lubricant, e.g. STIHL BioPlus,
completely fill the chain oil tank.
: Store the unit in a dry and high or
locked location, out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.

Checking and Replacing
the Chain Sprocket
: Remove the chain sprocket cover,
chain and guide bar.
Replace the chain sprocket:
a
– after using two Oilomatic chains or
sooner
– if the wear marks (dimension a)
on the sprocket are deeper than
0.02 in (0.5 mm) – the life of the
chain would otherwise be reduced.
Use reference gauge (special
accessory) to check the depth of the
wear marks.
The service life of the chain
sprocket is prolonged if it is used
with two chains in rotation.
Use only original STIHL replacement
sprockets.
The chain sprocket is driven via a friction
clutch and must be replaced by a
servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends that you have
maintenance and repair work performed
only by a STIHL servicing dealer.
