MAINTENANCE

•The filter can be cleaned more thoroughly by washing it in water and detergent.

An air filter that has been in use for a long time cannot be cleaned completely. The filter must therefore be replaced with a new one at regular intervals. A damaged air filter must always be replaced.

A JONSERED chain saw can be equipped with different types of air filter according to working conditions, weather, season, etc. Contact your dealer for advice.

Spark plug

The spark plug condition is influenced by:

•Incorrect carburettor adjustment.

•Wrong fuel mixture (too much oil).

•A dirty air filter.

These factors cause deposits on the spark plug electrodes, which may result in operating problems and starting difficulties.

•If the machine is low on power, difficult to start or runs poorly at idle speed: always check the spark plug first before taking any further action. If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and check that the electrode gap is 0.5 mm. The spark plug should be replaced after about a month in operation or earlier if necessary.

CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug type! Use of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/cylinder.

Muffler

The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to direct the exhaust gases away from the operator. The exhaust gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may cause fire if directed against dry and combustible material.

Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor mesh. If your machine has this type of muffler, you should clean the mesh at least once a week. This is best done with a wire brush.

CAUTION! The mesh must be replaced if it is damaged. If the mesh is blocked the machine will overheat and this will cause damage to the cylinder and piston. Never use a machine with a muffler that is in poor condition.

Needle bearing lubrication

The clutch drum is fitted with one of the following drive sprockets:

•A Spur sprocket (the chain sprocket is welded on the drum)

•B Rim sprocket (replaceable)

Both versions have a needle bearing on the drive shaft, which has to be greased regularly (once a week).

CAUTION! Use a high-quality bearing grease or engine oil.

Adjustment of the oil pump

The oil pump is adjustable. Adjustments are made by turning the screw using a screwdriver or combination spanner. The machine is supplied from the factory set to 1 turn open. Turning the screw clockwise will reduce the oil flow and turning the screw anti-clockwise will increase the oil flow.

WARNING! The engine must not be running

!when making adjustments.

Recommended settings:

Bar -15": 1 turn from the closed position.

Bar 15" -18": 2 turns from the closed position.

Bar 18" -24": 3 turns from the closed position.

Bar 24" -: 4 turns from the closed position.

These recommendations apply to JONSERED chain oil, for other chain oils increase the oil flow by one step.
