Changing the type of fuel
Fine tuning may be required if the chain saw, after changing the type of fuel, performs differently with regard to starting, acceleration, maximum speed, etc.
Conditions
•Before any adjustments are made the air filter should be clean and the cylinder cover fitted. Adjusting the carburettor while a dirty air filter is in use will result in a leaner mixture next time the filter is cleaned. This can give rise to serious engine damage.
•Do not attempt to adjust the L and H jets beyond either stop as this could cause damage.
•Now start the machine according to the starting instructions and let it warm up for 10 minutes.
CAUTION! If the chain rotates while idling the T- screw must be turned
•Place the machine on a flat surface so that the bar points away from you and so that the bar and chain do not come into contact with the surface or other objects.
Low speed jet L
Turn the low speed jet L clockwise until it stops. If the engine accelerates poorly or idles unevenly, turn the low speed jet L anticlockwise until good acceleration and idling are achieved.

High speed jet H
At the factory the engine is adjusted at sea level. When working at a high altitude or in different weather conditions, temperatures and atmospheric humidity, it may be necessary to make minor adjustments to the high speed jet.
CAUTION! If the high speed jet is screwed in too far, it may damage the piston/cylinder.
When test run at the factory, the high speed jet is set so that the engine satisfies the applicable legal requirements at the same time as achieving maximum performance. The carburettor’s high speed jet is then locked using a limiter cap in the fully screwed out position. The limiter cap limits the potential to adjust the high speed jet to at most half a turn.
To adjust the carburettor correctly you should contact a mechanic with access to a rev counter.
Correctly adjusted carburettor
When the carburettor is correctly adjusted the machine accelerates without hesitation and

WARNING! Do not start the chain saw ! unless the bar, chain and clutch cover (chain brake) are fitted, otherwise the
clutch may come loose and cause personal injury.
Function
•The carburettor governs the engine’s speed via the throttle control. Air and fuel are mixed in the carburettor. The air/fuel mixture is adjustable. Correct adjustment is essential to get the best performance from the machine.
•Adjusting the carburettor means that the engine is adapted to local operating conditions, e.g. climate, altitude, petrol and the type of
