Allow only persons who fully understand
this manual to operate your chain saw.
46
To receive maximum performance and
satisfaction from your STIHL chain saw,
47
it is important that you read, understand
51
and follow the safety precautions and
53
the operating and maintenance
55
instructions in chapter "Safety
56
Precautions and Working Techniques"
before using your chain saw. For further
56
information you can go to
57
www.stihlusa.com.
Contact your STIHL dealer or the STIHL
distributor for your area if you do not
57
understand any of the instructions in this

manual.
Warning!
Because a chain saw is a high-speed
wood-cutting tool, some special safety
precautions must be observed as with
any other power saw to reduce the risk
of personal injury. Careless or improper
use may cause serious or even fatal
injury.
