Write down the serial number for the chainsaw. Stihl assigns all the chainsaws it manufactures a distinct number. When people buy the chainsaw new at a dealer, often the dealer takes care of registering the chainsaw with the Stihl company. You can call Stihl or contact them through email to learn if the previous owner ever reported it as stolen.

Call your local law enforcement agency. Police and sheriff departments keep records of the serial numbers of stolen equipment. The officer can look up the serial number to learn if someone has reported it as stolen.
Ask the officer to find out if the chainsaw shows up on the National Equipment Register list of stolen equipment. This is a national organization whose membership includes insurance companies, law enforcement agencies, construction companies, farmers and ranchers. If your local law enforcement is not a member, you can contact the Register directly using the resource in this article. This group maintains a database of construction equipment that you can search for a small fee using the serial number of the chainsaw, the model and the manufacturer.
The first, and most important, step is that you should keep a record of ALL your STIHL serial numbers. This is absolutely crucial to retrieving your stolen STIHL tool. The serial number for a STIHL product is a 9-digit code located on all STIHL machines. Please note that STIHL accessories do not have serial numbers.
The serial number is unique to every STIHL machine and is registered to you at the point of purchase by your STIHL Approved Dealer. This is how we can identify who a STIHL machine belongs to for warranty purposes, or in this case, who a STIHL machine belongs to if it has been stolen. Your dealer should provide you with the STIHL serial number at the point of purchase for your records, but if you need assistance locating it, either speak with any STIHL Approved Dealer or to our Customer Services team on enquiries@stihl.co.uk.
Once you have all of your STIHL serial numbers located, keep a log of them. This log can be on a secure document on your personal computer or on a secure document on your mobile phone. You can also store your serial numbers on the STIHL App. By adding a machine to the Favourites section of the STIHL App, you can add important information, including the serial number, the invoice for the purchase and additional photos of the product directly from your phone gallery.
After you have created this log of STIHL serial numbers, we would also recommend keeping a backup of it too, just in case you lose the original file due to file corruption or your phone being misplaced.
If you have registered your contact details as part of the warranty, after you have spoken to the police, we also advise you to inform the STIHL GB Technical team with the list of stolen serial numbers. The Technical team will be able to mark these serial numbers as stolen in the STIHL warranty system.
For paired products, the serial number (MAC address) can be viewed in the STIHL connect pro portal. In addition to the serial number in clear text, the 2D data matrix code includes the serial number. The data matrix code can be read using the STIHL app. If it is no longer possible to read the entire label and the Smart Connector is no longer paired, restoration is not possible.

hi all, iv just bought a used ms200t, but on getting the chainsaw and giving it a look over it appears to have a 020 tank fitted:thumbdown: what I want to know Is, is this a ms200t with a 020 tank fitted or is it a 020 with some ms200 parts fitted:confused1:can I find out from the serial number etc. thanks
hi, I bought it as a ms200t as that's what it was listed as, it does have flippy caps (fuel and oil) an I called stihl service centre but they couldn't tell me the year, but they could tell me that the carb is a 020 carb from the numbers/letters on it, so it looks like its a bit of both I guess, I would of sent it back if I hadn't had it striped down before I noticed:blushing: 2ff7e9595c
