MAINTENANCE
A bar with any of the following faults should be replaced:
Wear inside the bar rails which permits the chain to lie
■
over sideways;
Bent guide bar;
■
Cracked or broken rails;
■
Spread rails.
■
In addition, lubricate guide bars (with a sprocket at their
tip) weekly. Using a grease syringe, lubricate weekly in
the lubricating hole. Turn the guide bar and check that
the lubrication holes (A) and chain groove are free from
impurities.
CLEANING THE AIR CLEANER (Fig. 59 - 60)
CAUTION
Make sure the air cleaner is correctly placed in the air
fi lter cover before reassembly. Never run the engine
without the air fi lter, serious damage could result.
ADJUSTING THE CARBURETOR (Fig. 61 - 63)
Before adjusting the carburetor:
Use a brush or compressed air to clean the starter cover
■
vents.
Clean the air cleaner (A). Refer to Cleaning the Air
■
Cleaner in the Maintenance section of this manual.
Allow the engine to warm up prior to adjustment of
■
engine idle speed.
WARNING
Weather conditions and altitude may affect
carburetion. Do not allow bystanders close to the
chain saw while adjusting the carburetor.
Idle Speed Adjustment
The idle speed adjustment controls how much the throttle
valve stays open when the throttle trigger is released. To
adjust:
Turn idle speed screw "T" clockwise to increase idle
■
speed.
Turn idle speed screw "T" counterclockwise to
■
decrease idle speed.
Make a test cut, then adjust the H needle for best
■
cutting power, not for maximum speed. The H needle
is restricted to 1/4 turn.

WARNING
THE SAW CHAIN SHOULD NEVER TURN AT IDLE.
Serious personal injury may result from the saw chain
turning at idle.
CLEANING THE STARTER UNIT (Fig. 62)
Use a brush or compressed air to keep the cooling vents (B)
of the starter assembly free and clean of debris.
CARBURETOR ANTI-FREEZE MECHANISM (Fig.
64-65)
The chain saw is designed with a ventilation hatch on the
right side of the cylinder cover which allows warm air to be
supplied from the engine to the carburetor to help prevent
icing under colder operating conditions. Operating the
chain saw in temperatures from 32ºF to 41ºF (0ºC to 5ºC)
at times of high humidity may result in ice forming within the
carburetor. This can cause the output power of the engine
to be reduced and/or the engine to fail to operate smoothly.
When operating under these circumstances, the chain saw
should be placed in anti-freeze mode before use.
To switch to anti-freeze mode:
Place the ignition switch in the OFF (
■
Remove the air cleaner cover (A).
■
Remove the air cleaner.
■
Lift choke knob (E) up to remove from the cylinder
■
cover (C).
Loosen the fi ve screws holding the cylinder cover in
■
place. Remove the cylinder cover.
Remove the icing cap (D) located on the right-hand
■
side of the cylinder cover by pressing down on it with
your fi nger.
Adjust the icing cap so that the "snow" mark faces
■
upward, then return it to its original position in the
cylinder cover.
Replace the cylinder cover and reinstall screws to
■
secure.
Replace choke knob, air cleaner, and air cleaner
■
cover.
WARNING
Always return the unit to normal operating mode
if there is no danger of icing occurring. Continuing
to use the chain saw in anti-freeze mode when
temperatures have risen and returned to normal may
result in the engine failing to start properly or in the
engine failing to operate at its normal speed.
