Frequently Asked Questions - 056 STIHL
How do I start the STIHL 056 chainsaw?
Ensure the chain brake is engaged. Move the master control lever to the choke position. Pull the starter rope until the engine fires, then move the lever to the run position and pull again.
What fuel mixture does the STIHL 056 require?
Use a 50:1 mixture of unleaded gasoline and high-quality STIHL two-stroke engine oil.
How do I adjust the chain tension?
Loosen the bar nuts slightly, turn the tensioning screw clockwise to tighten the chain, then retighten the bar nuts. The chain should snap back when pulled up.
Why won't my chainsaw start?
Check the spark plug for fouling, ensure there is fuel in the tank, and verify the ignition switch is in the ON position. Also check the air filter for blockage.
How often should I sharpen the chain?
Sharpen the chain when it becomes dull, indicated by sawdust instead of chips. Typically after every few hours of use, depending on wood hardness.
What type of bar oil should I use?
Use a high-quality bar and chain oil, preferably STIHL BioPlus or an adhesive oil that clings to the chain.
How do I clean the air filter?
Remove the air filter cover, take out the filter, and tap it gently to remove dirt. If heavily soiled, wash in warm soapy water, dry, and re-oil lightly.
What is the recommended spark plug gap?
The recommended spark plug gap is 0.5 mm (0.020 inch). Use a spark plug like NGK BPMR7A.
How do I store the chainsaw for winter?
Drain the fuel tank and run the engine until it stops to prevent gumming. Clean the saw, lubricate the chain, and store in a dry place.
Where can I find spare parts for the STIHL 056?
Spare parts are available at authorized STIHL dealers or online through STIHL parts retailers.
