This top handle chain saw is 
designed specifically for tree surgery 
and maintenance in the tree.

The increased risk includes injuries due 
to uncontrolled reactive forces of the 
chain saw or leg injuries due to the saw 
"dropping" at the end of the cut.

Regular chain saws (with wider spaced 
handles) are recommended for all other 
cutting work at ground level.

Never work in a tree unless you have 
received specific, professional training 
for such work, including training in the 
use of the safety and other climbing 
equipment, such as harnesses, ropes, 
belts, climbing irons, snap hooks, 
carabiners, etc.

Have your STIHL dealer show you how 
to operate your power tool. All safety 
precautions that are generally observed 
when working with an axe or a hand saw 
also apply to the operation of chain 
saws. Observe all applicable federal, 
state and local safety regulations, 
standards and ordinances.

Use your chain saw only for cutting 
wooden objects.

Most of these safety precautions and 
warnings apply to the use of all STIHL 
chain saws. Different models may have 
different parts and controls. See the 
appropriate section of your instruction 
manual for a description of the controls 
and the function of the parts of your 
model.

Do not clean your machine with a 
pressure washer. The solid jet of water 
may damage parts of the machine.

Safe use of a chain saw involves

1

the operator

2

the power tool

3

the use of the power tool.

Safety Precautions and 

Working Techniques

Due to the special com-
pact handle design 
(closely spaced han-
dles), there is an 
increased risk of injury 
from loss of control.

For this reason 
these special 
chain saws should 
be used only for 
work in a tree by 
persons who are 
trained in special 
cutting and work-
ing techniques and 
who are properly 
secured (lift 
bucket, ropes, 
safety harness)

Warning!

Working in a tree requires the use of 
special cutting and working techniques 
which must be observed in order to 
reduce the increased risk of personal 
injury.

The use of any chain saw 
may be hazardous. The 
saw chain has many 
sharp cutters. If the cut-
ters contact your flesh, 
they will cut you, even if 
the chain is not moving. 
At full throttle, the chain 
speed can reach 45 mph 
(20 m/s).

It is important that you 
read, fully understand 
and observe the following 
safety precautions and 
warnings. Read the 
instruction manual and 
the safety instructions 
periodically. Careless or 
improper use may cause 
serious or fatal injury.

Warning!

Reactive forces, including kickback, can 
be dangerous. Pay special attention to 
the section on reactive forces.

Warning!

Do not lend or rent your power tool with-
out the instruction manual. Be sure that 
anyone using it understands the infor-
mation contained in this manual.

Warning!

Do not use it for other purposes, since 
misuse may result in personal injury or 
property damage, including damage to 
the machine.

Warning!

Minors should never be allowed to use 
this power tool. Bystanders, especially 
children, and animals should not be 
allowed in the area where it is in use.
