CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT
WARNING:
during most of this procedure. Wear your pro-
tective equipment and observe all safety pre-
cautions. The chain must not move at idle
speed.
The carburetor has been carefully set at the
factory. Adjustments may be necessary if you
notice any of the following conditions:
S Chain moves at idle. See IDLE SPEED- -T
adjusting procedure.
S Saw will not idle. See IDLE SPEED- -T ad-
justing procedure.
Idle Speed- - T
Allow engine to idle. If the chain moves, idle is too
fast. If the engine stalls, idle is too slow. Adjust
speed until engine runs without chain movement
(idle too fast) or stalling (idle too slow). The idle
speed screw is located in the area above the
primer bulb and is labeled T.
S Turn idle screw (T) clockwise to increase en-
gine speed.
S Turn idle screw (T) counterclockwise to de-
crease engine speed.
If you require further assistance or are unsure
about performing this procedure, contact your au-
thorized service dealer or call our customer assis-
tance help line at 1- -800- -554- -6723.
COOLING SYSTEM
To keep the working temperature as low as
possible the machine is equipped with a cool-
ing system.
The cooling system consists of:
S Air intake on the starter
S Air guide plate
S Fins on the flywheel
S Cooling fins on the cylinder
S Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylin-
der)
Clean the cooling system with a brush after
each use, more often in demanding conditions.
A dirty or blocked cooling system results in the
machine overheating which causes damage to
the piston and cylinder.
If your chain saw is to be stored for a period of
time:
S Clean saw thoroughly before storage.
S Store in a clean dry area.
S Lightly oil external metal surfaces and guide
bar.
S Oil the chain and wrap it in heavy paper or
cloth.
FUEL SYSTEM
Under FUELING ENGINE in the OPERATION
section of this manual, see message labeled
IMPORTANT regarding the use of gasohol in
your chain saw.
Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in
minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits
during storage. Add stabilizer to the gasoline in
the fuel tank or fuel storage container.
