N At temperatures above 20°C:
Return the shutter to the summer
position (s ) to avoid engine
running problems and overheating.
At temperatures below -10°C
It is advisable to fit the "cover plate" kit
(special accessory) if you use your saw
in extremely cold conditions
(temperatures below -10°C, in powder
or drifting snow).
If idling behavior is erratic or
acceleration is poor:
N Turn the low speed screw (L) 1/4 of
a turn counterclockwise.
It is usually necessary to change the
setting of the idle speed screw (LA) after
every correction to the low speed
screw (L) – see "Adjusting the
Carburetor".
N If your saw is very cold (frost or ice
on machine), start the engine and
keep it at a high idle speed (with
chain brake disengaged) until it
reaches normal operating
temperature.
Mounting kit
The cover plate mounting kit helps
prevent snow being sucked into the
machine.
When the cover plate is fitted, the
shutter must be in the winter position.
In the event of engine running problems,
first check that the conditons for use of
the cover plate mounting kit still apply.
Positions of Master Control lever
Stop 0 – engine off – the ignition is
switched off.
Normal run position F – engine runs or
can fire.
Starting throttle n – this position is
used to start a warm engine. The Master
Control lever moves to the normal run
position as soon as the throttle trigger is
squeezed.
Choke shutter closed l – this position
is used to start a cold engine.
Setting the Master Control lever
To move the Master Control lever from
the normal run position (F) to choke
closed (l), press down the throttle
trigger lockout and squeeze the throttle
trigger at the same time and hold them in
that position – now set the Master
Control lever.
To select the starting throttle
position (n), move the Master Control
lever to choke closed (l) first, then
push it into the starting throttle
position (n).
The Master Control lever must be in the
choke closed position (l) before it can
be moved to to the starting throttle
position (n).
The Master Control lever moves from
the starting throttle position (n) to the
normal run position (F) when you press
down the throttle trigger lockout and blip
the throttle trigger at the same time.
To switch off the engine, move the
Master Control lever to Stop 0.
Choke shutter closed (l)
– If the engine is cold
– If the engine stalls when you open
the throttle after starting.
– If the fuel tank was run until empty
(engine stopped).
Starting throttle position (n)
– If the engine is warm, i.e. if it has
been running for about one minute.
– When the engine begins to fire.
– After clearing a flooded combustion
