If the saw pinches, stop the engine and remove it from the log. 6. Only properly trained professionals should work in an area where the logs, limbs and roots are tangled. Working in blow down areas is extremely hazardous. 7. Drag the logs into a clear area before cutting. Pull out exposed and cleared logs first. 001BA050 LÄ MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND STORING Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control devices and systems may be performed by any nonroad engine repair establishment or individual. However if you claim warranty for a component which has not been serviced or maintained properly or if nonapproved replacement parts were used, STIHL may deny warranty. Never operate a chainsaw that is damaged, improperly adjusted or not completely or securely assembled. Follow the maintenance and repair instructions in the appropriate section of your Owner's Manual, especially those in the chapters "Mounting the Bar and Chain", "Maintaining and Sharpening" and "Chain Brake". !Warning! Use only STIHL replacement parts for maintenance and repair. Use of parts manufactured by others may cause serious or fatal injury. !Warning! Always stop the engine and ensure that the chain is stopped before making any adjustments, maintenance or repair work, changing the saw chain or cleaning the saw. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair work not described in your Owner's Manual. Have such work performed at your STIHL service shop only. !Warning! Never test the ignition system with ignition wire terminal removed from sparkplug or with unseated spark plug, since uncontained sparking may cause a fire. !Warning! To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury, use only spark plugs authorized by STIHL. Always press spark plug boot snugly onto spark plug terminal of the proper size. (Note: If terminal has detachable SAE adapter nut, it must be attached.) A loose connection between spark plug terminal and ignition wire connector in the boot may create arcing that could ignite combustible fumes and cause a fire. Keep spark plug clean, and make sure ignition lead is in good condition. !Warning! Do not operate your chainsaw if the muffler is damaged, missing or modified. An improperly maintained muffler will increase the risk of fire and hearing loss. Never touch a hot muffler or burn will 24 Chainsaw Safety Manual
