The Stihl 009, 010, and 011 chain saws were a series of lightweight and compact saws introduced by Stihl in the late 1960s and early 1970s. These saws were designed for domestic and light professional use, particularly for tasks such as pruning, firewood cutting, and general tree work around the home and farm. The 009, originally released in 1968, was the smallest of the three, featuring a 10.5cc engine and a 10-inch bar length. The 010, released in 1971, offered a larger 31cc engine and a 14-inch bar length, making it more suitable for larger jobs. The 011, also released in 1971, shared the same engine and bar length as the 010, but differed in features like the carburetor and ignition system. Despite their differences, these saws shared a number of common characteristics, including a simple and robust design, easy maintenance, and relatively low power output.
These chain saws, while no longer in production, were highly valued for their reliability, ease of use, and affordability. They were known for their lightweight design, comfortable handling, and smooth performance. These qualities made them popular among homeowners and hobbyists who required a powerful and reliable tool for various tasks. Although the 009, 010, and 011 chain saws have been superseded by newer, more powerful models, they remain a significant part of Stihl's history and continue to be sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. The service and repair manual for these chain saws serves as a crucial resource for owners looking to maintain and repair their machines, ensuring they continue to function safely and efficiently for years to come.
