Adjustment of the oil pump
Centrifugal cleaning ”Turbo”
The oil pump is adjustable. Adjustments are made by turning the screw using a screwdriver or combination spanner. The saw is supplied from the factory with the screw set to position 2. Turning the screw clockwise will reduce the oil flow and turning the screw

Centrifugal cleaning means the following:
All air to the carburetor is carried through the starter. Dirt and dust is centrifuged away by the cooling fan.
IMPORTANT! In order to keep the function of the centrifugal cleaning, a continous maintenance and care must be made.
!WARNING! The engine must not be running when making adjustments.

Cooling system
To obtain the lowest possible running temperature the saw is equipped with a cooling system.
•Clean the air intake to the starter, the fan wings of the flywheel, the space around the flywheel, inlet pipe and carburetor space.
Winter use
During winter time, snow and cold weather can cause running problems, such as:
•Too low engine temperature.
•Icing of the air filter and freezing of the carburetor.
Therefore some special measures are required:
•Partly reduce the air inlet of the starter and by doing that increase the engine temperature.
•Preheat the intake air to the carburetor by using the heat from the cylinder.
The cooling system consists of:
1.Air intake on the starter unit.
2.Air guide plate.
3.Fan blades on the flywheel.
4.Cooling fins on the cylinder.
5.Cylinder cowling (supplies cold air over the cylinder).

Temperature 0°C (32°F) or colder:
The cylinder cover is made so it can be adjusted for running in cold weather. Open the winter flap so that preheated air from the cylinder can pass into the carburetor area preventing for instance icing of the air filter.
For temperatures below |
(23°F) and/or in snow |
Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling system results in the saw overheating which causes damage to piston and cylinder.
NOTE! The cooling system of chain saws that are fitted with a catalytic converter must be cleaned daily. This is particularly important on saws with catalytic converters, because the higher working temperature of the exhaust demands efficient cooling of the engine and the catalytic converter unit.

These reduce the air flow and prevent large amounts of snow from being sucked into the carburetor chamber. NOTE! When the winter plug is fitted the winter flap must be open.
