Warning!
49
Because a chainsaw is a high-speed
wood-cutting tool, some special safety
precautions must be observed as with
any other power saw to reduce the risk of
personal injury. Careless or improper use
may cause serious or even fatal injury.
STIHL's philosophy is to continually
improve all of its products. As a result,
engineering changes and improvements
are made from time-to-time. If the opera-
ting characteristics or the appearance of
your saw differ from those described in
this Manual, please contact your STIHL
dealer for information and assistance.
