Adjustments
and Maintenance
General Cleaning
• Using a brush or compressed air clean and clear the
ventilation slots in the starter unit each time is necessary.
• Likewise, clean periodically the blades in the motor
cylinder and the ventilator blades to remove dirt.
Otherwise the motor can get damaged due to
overheating.
• Depending on the type of fuel and oil used, or the
particular functioning conditions, the exhaust orifice and
the muffler can be obstructed with coal deposits. If the
chainsaw shows loss of power in the chainsaw it will be
necessary to eliminate such deposits to restore
performance. Take the chainsaw to a
Authorized Service Center to carry out this service.
Air Filter Cleansing
• Loose the lock and remove the air filter cover.
• Then pull the choke lever completely outwards to
prevent contaminating the carburetor during the cleaning
process.
• When removing the air filter use compressed air or a
brush in the uncovered area to eliminate soil and sawdust
as much as possible.
• Remove the air filter pulling upwards.
• Use a flat screwdriver to separate both sections of the air
filter.
• Reliant on the use time, clean the filter superficially only
tapping it against a smooth and flat surface to dislodge
most of the sawdust and dust particles.
• The air filter can also be cleaned with compressed air.
Clean on both sides.
• For a more complete cleansing wash the air filter with a
soapy solution, rinse and let dry completely before
installing back in the chainsaw.
• If using compressed air to dry it, blow air on both sides
of the filter.
• Set back the air filter. Verify it ties and rest perfectly in
the base before setting the cover and lock.
Fuel Filter
• Check periodically the fuel filter. If contaminated or
damaged, go to a
Center to replace it.
WARNING
• Never try to start the motor
WITHOUT assembling first all the chainsaw parts.
Otherwise the parts can get fractured and shoot
out towards the operator. Can also damage the
chainsaw and make the Warranty void.
