000BA054 KN

–after using two chains or sooner

–if the wear marks (arrow) on the sprocket are deeper than approx. 0.02 in (0.5 mm) since this would reduce the life of the chain. Use a gauge (special accessory) to check the depth of the wear marks.

It is best to use two chains in rotation with one sprocket.

Use only original STIHL chain sprockets.
