the Chain Sprocket

guide bar.
► Release chain brake – pull hand guard against
the front handle
27.1 Fit new chain sprocket
– after use of two saw chains or earlier
– if the wear marks (arrows) are deeper than
0.5 mm – otherwise the service life of the saw
chain is reduced – use check gauge (special

Using two saw chains in alternation helps pre‐
serve the chain sprocket.
STIHL recommends use of original STIHL chain
sprockets in order to ensure optimal functioning
of the chain brake.
