will reduce the oil flow and turning the screw anti- clockwise will increase the oil flow.

because the higher exhaust temperature requires efficient cooling of the engine and the catalytic converter unit.

Cooling system

To keep the working temperature as low as possible the machine is equipped with a cooling system.

The cooling system consists of:

1Air intake on the starter.

2Air guide plate.

3Fins on the flywheel.

4Cooling fins on the cylinder.

5Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).

Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling system results in the machine overheating which causes damage to the piston and cylinder.

Note! The cooling system on a chain saw with catalytic converter must be cleaned daily. This is particularly important on chain saws with catalytic converters,

IMPORTANT! In order to maintain operation of the centrifugal cleaning system it must be regularly maintained. Clean the air intake to the starter, the fins on the flywheel, the space around the flywheel, inlet pipe and carburettor compartment.

Winter use

Running problems can occur when using the machine in the cold and snowy conditions caused by:

•Too low engine temperature.

•Icing of the air filter and carburettor. Special measures are therefore often required:

•Partly mask the air inlet on the starter to increase the working temperature of the engine.

•Preheat the intake air to the carburettor by using the heat from the cylinder.

Temperature 0°C or colder:

The cylinder cover is designed so it can be adjusted for running in cold weather. Twist the winter flap so that preheated air from the cylinder can pass into the carburettor space preventing icing of the air filter, etc.

For temperatures below -5°C and/or in snow conditions there is also:
