Do not resharpen the blade.
Replace the blade (1) if its

length (A) is no longer sufficient to
maintain the necessary ground
clearance (B) and obtain the
required depth of cut (C).
Checking Out-of-Balance
To avoid out-of-balance:
Have your dealer check the blade

for out-of-balance on a STIHL
balancer (special accessory) –
STIHL recommends an authorized
