Storing the Machine

For periods of 3 months or longer
Drain and clean the fuel tank in a
N
well ventilated area.
Dispose of fuel properly in
N
accordance with local
environmental requirements.
Run the engine until the carburetor
N
is dry – this helps prevent the
carburetor diaphragms sticking
together.
Remove the saw chain and guide
N
bar, clean them and spray with
corrosion inhibiting oil.
If the unit is stored with the drive
N
tube disassembled: Fit the
protective cap on the drive tube to
avoid dirt getting into the coupling.
Thoroughly clean the machine –
N
pay special attention to the cylinder
fins and air filter.
If you use a biological chain and bar
N
lubricant, e.g. STIHL BioPlus,
completely fill the chain oil tank.
Store the machine in a dry, high or
N
locked location – out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
Checking and Replacing
the Chain Sprocket
Remove the chain sprocket cover,
N
chain and guide bar.
Replace the chain sprocket
a
– after using two saw chains or
sooner
– if the wear marks (a) are deeper
than 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 saw chains in
rotation with one sprocket.
STIHL recommends the use of original
STIHL chain sprockets.
