OPERATION

ADJUSTING IDLE SPEED

If the engine starts, runs, and accelerates but will not idle, turn the idle speed screw “ T ” clockwise to increase idle speed.

If the chain turns at idle, turn the idle speed screw “ T ” counterclockwise to reduce the idle RPM and stop the chain movement. If the saw chain still moves at idle speed, contact a Homelite Service Center for adjust- ment and discontinue use until the repair is made.

THE SAW CHAIN SHOULD NEVER TURN AT IDLE. Turn the idle speed screw “T” counterclockwise to reduce the idle RPM and stop the chain, or contact a Homelite Service Center for adjustment and discontinue use until the repair is made.

Serious personal injury may result from the saw chain turning at idle.
