took it to this Ace manager who is very knowledgeable about these saws
and told him that he was having problems, and about the six day
guarantee. The manager said if you use Stihl oil, there is a four year
guarantee. If you don't use Stihl oil, two years. They are supposed to
run the saw for two to four minutes, and adjust the jets. They are
supposed to give you rudimentary safety training, none of which this
shop did.


Current Stihl consumer warranty is 1 year, or 2 years if you buy a
6-pack of Stihl 2-stroke oil at time of saw purchase

Would you agree that is considerably longer than six days the dealer
offered?


Of course, and the warranty is good nation-wide at any Stihl dealer with a
dated receipt.

I was relating information given to me by my friend. He's 70. So, I got
the two and four year info wrong. But we went out there with our total of
134 years, and cut six cords of wood, and hauled them to the trailer, loaded
them, got them home, and will now split them. Will try to go again before
the weather shuts us down.
