A bent or cracked blade must not be
straightened or welded – it may break
completely! – it must be replaced – see
"Fitting the blade".
STIHL recommends the use of only
genuine STIHL blades.
Do not resharpen the blade!
Replace the blade (1), if its
N
length (A) is no longer sufficient to
adjust the depth of cut (C) with the
necessary ground clearance (B).
Checking the balance
To avoid out-of-balance blades:
Have the blade checked by a

servicing dealer with the STIHL
balancer (special accessory) to see
if it is out of balance – STIHL
recommends the STIHL servicing
dealer – replace the blade if it is out
of balance, see "Fitting the blade"
