1 Introduction
Thank you for your purchase. The information contained in
this manual will help you receive maximum performance and
satisfaction from your STIHL chain saw and, if followed,
reduce the risk of injury from its use.
This lightweight, top-handle chain saw is designed
specifically for in-tree operation by arborists and other tree
care professionals. Its compact design makes it particularly
useful for in-tree maintenance, tree surgery and other
cutting work in confined spaces where greater
maneuverability is required. For cutting work at ground level,
use a traditional rear-handle chain saw with a wider handle
configuration for greater control.
SAVE THIS MANUAL!
Because a chain saw is a high-speed wood-
cutting tool, special safety precautions must be
observed to reduce the risk of personal injury.
Read this instruction manual thoroughly before
use and periodically thereafter. Follow all safety
precautions. Careless or improper use of the
chain saw can cause serious or fatal injury.
This top-handle chain saw is designed
for professional, in-tree use only.
Operators must be trained in special in-
tree cutting and working techniques
and properly secured at all times (for
example, in a lift bucket or secured
properly with ropes and a safety
harness).
WARNING
Operating this chain saw in a tree requires special working
techniques, which must be observed to reduce the risk of
personal injury. Never work in a tree unless you have
received specific, professional training for such work,
0458-791-8621-C
including training in the use of the safety equipment and
other climbing equipment, such as harnesses, ropes, belts,
climbing irons, snap hooks, carabiners, etc.
Have your authorized STIHL servicing dealer show you how
to operate your chain saw. All safety precautions that are
generally observed when working with an axe or a hand saw
also apply to the operation of chain saws. Observe all
applicable federal, state and local safety regulations,
standards and ordinances.
Do not lend or rent your chain saw without this instruction
manual. Allow only persons who have the proper training
and fully understand the information in this manual to
operate the chain saw.
For further information, or if you do not understand any of
the instructions in this manual, please go to
