Description
This 62 page, Stihl Chain and Bar Manual is intended as a guide to selection of the correct cutting attachment for a specific application as well as to its proper use and maintenance. It is important that you read, fully understand and observe the instructions in the chain saw manual. Non-observance of the instruction manual may result in serious or fatal injury. Special safety precautions must be observed to reduce the risk of personal injury when working with a chain saw because of the very high chain speed and very sharp cutters.
