N Drain and clean the fuel tank in a

N Run the engine until the carburetor
is dry – this helps prevent the
carburetor diaphragms sticking
together.
N Remove the saw chain and guide
bar, clean them and spray with
corrosion inhibiting oil.
N Thoroughly clean the machine –
pay special attention to the cylinder
fins and air filter.
N If you use a biological chain and bar
lubricant, e.g. STIHL BioPlus,
completely fill the chain oil tank.
N Store the machine in a dry, high or
locked location, out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
N Remove the chain sprocket cover,
chain and guide bar.
Replace the chain sprocket
– 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.
