Stihl chainsaw range. Operating instructions and safety precautions when handling the tool

As standard, the stihl ms 180 chainsaw comes complete with an instruction manual.

Due to the fact that it was developed by professionals from the German company Stihl, the manual for the chainsaw is written very competently and covers all the main points of operation. Let's look at some points of the instructions from which the owner of the saw can obtain the most necessary knowledge.

Safety instructions

This section contains basic recommendations for the correct and safe operation of the Shtil 180 chainsaw.

From this section you can find out what personal protective equipment should be used when working with a saw, how to transport and clean it. Safety when refueling the Shtil 180 chainsaw is highlighted as a separate item.

Another important subsection of safety is precautions and correct behavior when working. The most important points are marked with special signs that attract attention and emphasize the extreme importance of the information.

Chainsaw oil

Oil in Stihl saws is used:

1. In the fuel mixture.

Must meet the following criteria:

• dissolves well in gasoline, does not include impurities that, during combustion, clog the carburetor system;
• provide protection of engine parts and mechanisms from corrosion and wear, and have high coating and lubricating characteristics.

The manufacturer recommends using Stihl HP and Stihl HP Super mineral oils, as well as Stihl HP Ultra synthetics.

HP and HP Super ensure engine operation at temperatures down to minus 10 º C. After combustion, they leave a minimum of soot.

HP Super synthetics leave almost no carbon deposits on carburetor parts after combustion. Retains characteristics at temperatures down to minus 25 ºС. High environmental safety indicators: when released into the soil, 80% decomposes within 21 days.

1. For lubrication of the chain mechanism.

It must have good adhesion - adhesion to the metal surface. When sawing under the influence of centrifugal force, oil with low adhesive characteristics will quickly leave the chain parts. Friction will increase, cut quality will decrease, the temperature of the tire will rise, and it may become unusable.

For lubricating the chain elements of Shtil saws, Forestplus oil from the same manufacturer is recommended. Its components are selected to provide reliable lubrication in all temperature conditions. It is not subject to tarring, that is, precipitation of hardened fractions, over a shelf life of 3 years.

Branded oils are expensive. However, their use guarantees long-term, defect-free operation of the unit.

Reactionary forces

The instruction point following the safety section attracts attention at first glance with its picture. The information that can be obtained by reading the “Reaction Forces” section is probably unfamiliar to all those who do not read the instructions for Stihl chainsaws, but prefer to immediately start using them.

In turn, those who read it will receive several unique recommendations and tips for reducing chainsaw kickback and the risk of kickback and will find out why the saw chain brake has exactly this shape and location.

Product manufacturer STIHL

The history of the STIHL brand dates back to 1926, when Andreas Stihl founded. Initially, the company specialized in creating working boilers and the first “washing machines”, and later, with the money earned, the first model of a chainsaw was created. This unit, despite its enormous weight (48 kg), quickly conquered the market and began to be sold very successfully to countries near and far abroad.

The 90s marked the beginning of a family business for the company. Almost all members of the Stihl family began to take part in the life of the company.

In 1995, the AG&Co Holding was created, the main base of which was in Waiblingen and Diesburg.

Manufacturing company STIHL

Since 2002, a complete stranger has become the head of the board of directors of STIHL AG. At that time, boss Hans Peter Stihl headed the company's supervisory board and took over the chairmanship of the commission of STIHL Holding AG&Co.

After another 2 years, the company’s modern development center opened, and already in 2006, a new assembly plant started in China.

Today, the company is successfully developing, introducing new ideas and even more practical approaches into its work. STIHL's inventions top the chainsaw ratings in terms of reliability.

Work technique

This section will be useful to study for those who are picking up the MS 180 for the first time. The technique of cross-cutting, cutting downed wood and the felling process itself are touched upon and discussed in as much detail as possible.

I would like to note that some points in the section concerning, for example, cutting down trees in a certain direction, cannot be found in the operating instructions of other chainsaw manufacturers; it is for this reason that the instructions for the 180th are unique in their content.

After reading the section, you can learn how to properly cut a tree trunk, how to trim branches and the main points regarding safe work. Moreover, all these recommendations and methods are illustrated with the help of numerous drawings and drawings that reflect the essence in as much detail as possible. Thus, the section will be understandable even to people who have never had experience using a saw.

The Shtil 180 chainsaw is a household tool, and when developing the instructions, the manufacturer took care of inexperienced users and tried to make it as detailed as possible.

Cutting set and saw bar installation

In these sections, the 180's instructions are devoted to the saw set and its correct installation on the saw. Chain links, its tension, protection and much more, which will be useful to everyone who deals with the tool.

The most important information from this section is how tension control is carried out, and what precautions must be taken to avoid injury from sharp saw teeth.

• Oil tank volume – 150 ml;
• Working weight – 4 kg and 4 kg respectively.

The saw package includes a bar, chain, instructions and a warranty card.

Fuel and refueling

How and with what to fill the tool, lubricate the chain and the consequences of using low-quality fuel, this is what you can learn about from these sections. In fact, many people think that there is nothing to know there, but this is fundamentally wrong, because in this section the 180’s instructions contain a lot of useful information.

For example, such important points as:

• fuel mixture proportion;
• replacing the fuel filter;
• storage of the finished fuel mixture;
• preparing the Shtil chainsaw for refueling.

It will be useful even for those who have extensive operating experience to read and refresh their knowledge.

Shtil chainsaw device

Main parts and mechanisms

• fuel system . It consists of a tank for the gasoline-oil mixture, a fuel filter and a flexible hose that supplies the mixture to the carburetor. The tank volume, depending on the model, is up to 0.7 liters. This is enough for 30-35 minutes of work;
• carburetor _ Saturates the fuel with air, creating a fine mixture. Thanks to the adjustment screws, you can adjust the maximum, minimum and idle speed;
• ignition system. Electronic ignition is used, providing ignition in any conditions;
• engine. A two-stroke engine with a single cylinder is used. A number of models are equipped with an upgraded engine with 2-MIX technology, which prevents mixing of the incoming fuel mixture and exhaust gases. As a result, fuel consumption is 20% less and harmful emissions are reduced;
• clutch mechanism. The friction segments of the structure at certain revolutions per minute, under the influence of centrifugal force, engage and begin to rotate the mechanism drum with the drive sprocket. Its rays engage with the hooks of the chain and set it in motion. If rotation becomes difficult, for example, if a metal object hits, the clutches disengage from the drum and the rotation of the chain stops. The engine continues to operate without overload;

• tire . The part that guides the movement of the chain. The quality of the cut and engine wear depend on the choice of tire. You cannot use a tire longer than the length recommended by the manufacturer;
• saw chain. Comprises:

— cutting links with sharpened edges;

— driving links that ensure engagement with the drive sprocket and movement along the tire groove;

- connecting elements that combine all parts into one with rivets.

• chain lubrication system. Reduces wear and improves gliding, prevents excessive heating of the tire;
• starter. Starts the engine by turning the crankshaft using a cable mechanism. The air-fuel mixture is ignited by a spark from the spark plug, and the engine starts.
• controls:

1. Combined lever. To switch operating modes.
2. Gas lever stop. Additional protection. When the rear handle is released, the rotation of the drive sprocket stops.
3. Gas lever. When pressed, the engine speed increases.

Controls

Starting and stopping the engine

One of the most important points that the 180's instructions contain is starting and stopping the saw engine.

According to unofficial data, the majority of calls to the service center for Shtil chainsaws sold within a month are due to the owners violating the start algorithm for the Shtil 180 chainsaw.

The manufacturer has taken all possible measures to reduce statistics. Wrote detailed instructions and organized mandatory consultations during the sale. But users do not want to read paragraphs dedicated to starting a chainsaw and listen to salespeople, which as a result leads to an increase in the number of calls to the service center.

The starting section also indicates the main positions in which it is most convenient to start the saw, and at the same time protect yourself as much as possible from receiving various types of injuries.

You can watch a video on starting a chainsaw, which shows in detail what position the control lever should be in for different modes of starting the saw.

Startup procedure

Algorithm of actions when starting the saw

1. Apply the handbrake by pressing the protective shield with your hand until it clicks.
2. Press the decompression valve, if provided in the model. This will make it easier to start the engine.
3. By pressing the gas buttons and the gas stopper on the handle, simultaneously move the mode control lever to the lower position.
4. Place the saw on a flat surface.
5. With your left hand, grasp the tubular handle, with your right hand, the starter handle. Insert the toe of your foot into the slot in the rear handle and press the saw to the surface with your body weight.
6. Smoothly pull the starter cable out by the handle until it stops. Then forcefully pull the starter handle up several times while pushing against the tubular handle.
7. The engine will run for a short time and stop. Move the throttle by moving the mode lever up to the next detent.
8. Repeat step 6. If the engine turns on, you need to briefly press the gas control lever. This is necessary to ensure that the combination lever is locked in the idle position.
9. Release the brake by pulling the handle towards you until it clicks. The unit is ready for use.
10. To check the lubrication system, hold the saw over something light (snow, paper, cut of wood) and turn on the maximum gas. If the system is working properly, traces of oil stains will be visible.

The final points contained in the instructions of the 180th

In the final part of the article, German engineers have concentrated the most complete information about chainsaw maintenance.

So in the end, the instructions contain the following sections:

• tire maintenance;
• cleaning the air filter;
• carburetor adjustment;
• spark plug;
• storage;
• control and replacement of the drive sprocket;
• all information regarding the technical information of the saw.

A large section is devoted to chain sharpening. You can even say that you won’t be able to find more complete information about sharpening, choosing files and auxiliary tools anywhere except in the Shtil instructions.

The Calm instruction manual is a unique document in terms of the information collected in it, which will be most useful to read both for people without experience and for chainsaw owners with decent experience.
