Contents Safety Precautions and Working Techniques ......................... 2 Maintenance Chart ......................... 26 Main Parts of the Saw .................... 28 This manual contains the safety precautions and recommended cutting techniques outlined in STIHL instruction manuals for gasoline-powered chainsaws. Even if you are an experienced chainsaw user, it is in your own interest to familiarize yourself with the latest instructions and safety precautions regarding your chainsaw. Please note that the illustrations in the chapter “Main Parts of the Saw“ in this manual show the chainsaws STIHL MS 210, 230, 250. Other chainsaw models may have different parts and controls. You should therefore always refer to the instruction manual of your particular saw model. !Warning! Avoid contact of bar tip with any object. This can cause the guide bar to kick suddenly up and back, which may result in serious or fatal injury. To reduce the risk of kickback injury STIHL recommends the use of STIHL green labeled reduced kickback bars and low kickback chains and a STIHL Quickstop chain brake. Contact your STIHL dealer or the STIHL distributor for your area if you do not understand any of the instructions in this manual. STIHl Chainsaw Safety Manual English / USA Safety Precautions andWorking Techniques Because a chainsaw is a high-speed, fast-cutting power tool, special safety precautions must be observed to reduce the risk of personal injury. It is important that you read, fully understand and observe the following safety precautions and warnings. Read the instruction manual and the safety instructions periodically. Careless or improper use may cause serious or fatal injury. !Warning! Reactive forces, including kickback, can be dangerous. Pay special attention to the section on reactive forces. Have your STIHL dealer show you how to operate your power tool. All safety precautions that are generally observed when working with an axe or a hand saw also apply to the operation of chainsaws. Observe all applicable federal, state and local safety regulations, standards and ordinances. When using a chain saw for logging purposes, for instance, refer to the OSHA regulations for “logging operations“ at 29 Code of Federal Regulations 1910.266. !Warning! Do not lend or rent your power tool without the instruction manual. Be sure that anyone using it understands the information contained in this manual. !Warning! The use of this machine may be hazardous.The saw chain has many sharp cutters. If the cutters contact your flesh, they will cut you, even if the chain is not moving. At full throttle, the chain speed can reach 67 mph (30 m/s). Use your chainsaw only for cutting wooden objects. It must not be used for any other purposes, since such misuse may result in an accident or damage to the machine. !Warning! Minors should never be allowed to use this power tool. Bystanders, especially children, and animals should not be allowed in the area where it is in use. !Warning! To reduce the risk of injury to bystanders and damage to property, never let your power tool run unattended. When it is not in use (e.g. during a work break), shut it off and make sure that unauthorized persons do not use it. Most of these safety precautions and warnings apply to the use of all STIHL chainsaws. Different models may have different parts and controls. See the appropriate section of your instruction manual for a description of the controls and the function of the parts of your model. Safe use of a chainsaw involves 1. the operator 2. the saw 3. the use of the saw. THE OPERATOR Physical Condition You must be in good physical condition and mental health and not under the influence of any substance (drugs, alcohol, etc.) which might impair vision, dexterity or judgment. Do not operate this machine when you are fatigued. !Warning! Be alert – if you get tired, take a break. Tiredness may result in loss of control. Working with any power tool can be strenuous. If you have any condition that might be aggravated by strenuous work, check with your doctor before operating this machine. Chainsaw Safety Manual English / USA !Warning! Prolonged use of a power tool (or other machines) exposing the operator to vibrations may produce whitefinger disease (Raynaud's phenomenon) or carpal tunnel syndrome. These conditions reduce the hand's ability to feel and regulate temperature, produce numbness and burning sensations and may cause nerve and circulation damage and tissue necrosis. All factors which contribute to white- finger disease are not known, but cold weather, smoking and diseases or physical conditions that affect blood vessels and blood transport, as well as high vibration levels and long periods of exposure to vibration are mentioned as factors in the development of whitefinger disease. In order to reduce the risk of whitefinger dis...
