WARNING
Never touch a saw chain with your hand
or any part of your body when the engine
is running, even when the chain is not
rotating.
In the event of an emergency, switch off
the engine immediately – move the
Master Control Lever to STOP, 0 or †.
WARNING
Always stop the engine before putting
the chain saw down.
WARNING
The saw chain continues to move for a
short period after the throttle trigger is
released (flywheel effect).
Accelerating the engine while the saw
chain is blocked increases the load and
will cause the clutch to slip continuously.
This may occur if the throttle is
depressed for more than a few seconds
when the saw chain is pinched in the cut
or the chain brake is engaged. It can
result in overheating and damage to
important components (e. g. clutch,
polymer housing components) – which
can then increase the risk of injury, e. g.,
from the saw chain moving while the
engine is idling.
WARNING
Your chain saw is equipped with a chain
catcher. It is designed to reduce the risk
of personal injury in the event of a
thrown or broken saw chain. From time
to time, the catcher may be damaged or
12
removed. To reduce the risk of personal
injury, do not operate a chain saw with a
damaged or missing chain catcher.
WARNING
Inspect antivibration elements
periodically. Replace damaged, broken
or excessively worn antivibration
elements immediately, since they may
result in loss of control of the saw. A
"sponginess" in the feel of the saw,
increased vibration or increased
"bottoming" during normal operation
may indicate damage, breakage or
excessive wear. Antivibration elements
should always be replaced in sets. If you
have any questions as to whether the
antivibration elements should be
replaced, consult your STIHL servicing
dealer.
If this chain saw is subjected to
unusually high loads for which it was not
designed (e. g. heavy impact or a fall),
always check that it is in good condition
before continuing work. Check in
particular that the fuel system is tight (no
leaks) and that the controls and safety
devices are working properly. Do not
continue operating this chain saw if it is
damaged. In case of doubt, have it
checked by your STIHL servicing dealer.
Your chain saw is not designed for
prying or shoveling away limbs, roots or
other objects. Such use could damage
the cutting attachment or AV system.
WARNING
When sawing, make sure that the saw
chain does not touch any foreign
materials such as rocks, fences, nails
and the like. Such objects may be flung
off, damage the saw chain or cause the
chain saw to kickback.
WARNING
If the rotating saw chain strikes a rock or
other hard object, sparks may be
created, which can ignite flammabale
materials under certain circumstances.
Flammable materials can include dry
vegetation and brush, particularly when
weather conditions are hot and dry. Do
not use your chain saw around
flammable materials or around dry
vegetation or brush when there is a risk
of fire or wildfire. Contact your local fire
authorities or the U.S. Forestry Service if
you have any question about whether
vegetation and weather conditions are
suitable for the use of a chain saw.
WARNING
Take special care when cutting
shattered wood because of the risk of
injury from slivers being caught and
thrown in your direction.
WARNING
Never modify your muffler. Any
modification could cause an increase in
heat radiation, sparks or sound level,
thereby increasing the risk of fire, burn
injury or hearing loss. You may also
permanently damage the engine. Have
your muffler serviced and repaired by
your STIHL servicing dealer only.
WARNING
The muffler and other parts of the engine
(e.g. fins of the cylinder, spark plug)
become hot during operation and remain
MS 193 C
