Why my Jonsered CS 2245 II Chainsaw engine does not start?

If your Jonsered Chainsaw engine doesn't start, several issues could be the cause. It could be due to blocked starter pawls, which may require adjustment, cleaning, or professional service. Ensure you're using the correct fuel type by draining the tank and refilling it. If chain oil is in the fuel tank, drain it, and if you've already tried starting, consult a dealer. Check that the spark plug is clean, dry, and properly tightened with the correct electrode gap. If the engine is flooded from repeated choke use, remove and clean the spark plug, lay the chainsaw on its side, pull the starter rope several times, then reassemble and try starting.
