When you're looking for the one chain
saw that meets your needs, you'll find it in the STIHL line.
Consider the situation.
You're shopping for a chain saw. You know what you need to
accomplish, but you're not sure what saw - or what brand -
to buy. It really boils down to which chain saw manufacturer
can give you what you need, along with the assurance that
it'll be around as long as you need it.
You can't go wrong when you choose a STIHL.
The name "STIHL" has been around for about as long
as chain saws have. Andreas Stihl developed the first electric
chain saw in 1926 and one of the first portable, gasoline-powered
chain saws in 1929.
Now, over 80 years later, STIHL is a world leader in the
manufacturing of versatile consumer and professional chain
saws and other power tools. There are many models in the STIHL
line to allow homeowners, weekend woodcutters, farmers, professional
loggers, landscapers, construction crews and fire departments
to find the one saw that fits their needs.
WARNING: The occurrence called “kickback” can cause serious
or fatal injury. Always read the instruction manual carefully before
using your 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 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, 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.
