WARNING
The occurrence called “kickback” can cause serious
or fatal injury. Always read the instruction manual carefully before
using your chain saw. STIHL uses a green and yellow color-coding
system to help you select a powerhead, bar and chain combination
that complies with the kickback requirements of ANSI
Standard B175.1 (gasoline-powered chain saws) and §30 of UL 1662/
ANSI Standard B175.1 (electric chain saws). Ask your STIHL
Dealer about safe operating procedures and the advantages of
the STIHL Quickstop® chain brake, STIHL secondary chain braking
system (Q), STIHL reduced-kickback bars and STIHL low-kickback
saw chains.
STIHL recommends the use of green reduced-kickback bars and green low-kickback chains on all STIHL chain saws.
