N
bar, clean them and spray with
corrosion inhibiting oil.
If you use a biological chain and bar
N
lubricant, e.g. STIHL BioPlus,
completely fill the chain oil tank.
If the KombiTool is removed from
N
the KombiEngine and stored
separately: Fit the protective cap on
the drive tube to avoid dirt getting
into the coupling.
Store the machine in a dry, high or
N
locked location – out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
Checking and Replacing the
Chain Sprocket
Remove chain sprocket cover, saw
N
chain and guide bar
Replace the chain sprocket
a
replace after using two saw chains
–
or sooner
if the wear marks (a) on the sprocket
–
are deeper than approx. 0.5 mm
(0.02 in) since this would reduce the
service life of the saw chain. You
can use a gauge (special
accessory) to check the depth of the
wear marks
Using two saw chains in alternation
helps preserve the chain sprocket.
STIHL recommends the use of original
STIHL chain sprockets.
