I bought an Oregon 511a chain sharpener to try and save some money. The problem I am having is finding the specs on what angles to set the sharpener to sharpen the chain. Does anyone know where I can find the specifications for Stihl chains. Thanks
 
Most Stihl chains are 30 degrees, however a few are not.

Which model Stihl chain are you specifically interested in ?
 
This should help.
