MAINTENANCE

”Air Injection” centrifugal cleaning

Centrifugal cleaning means the following: All air to the carburettor passes through the starter. Dirt and dust is centrifuged out by the cooling fan.

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.

Temperature 0°C or colder:

For running the machine in cold weather or powder snow, a special cover is available, which is mounted on the starter housing. This reduces the intake of cold air and prevents large amounts of snow from being sucked in.

CAUTION! If the special winterising kit has been fitted or any measures have been taken to increase the temperature these changes must be reversed before the machine is used in normal temperature conditions.

Otherwise there is a risk of overheating, resulting in severe damage to the engine.

IMPORTANT! Any maintenance other than that described in this manual must be carried out by your servicing dealer (retailer).

Heated handles

(385XPG, 390XPG)

On models with the designation XPG/G, the front as well as the rear handle are equipped with electric heating coils. These are supplied with electricity from a built-in generator on the chain saw.

Electrical carburettor heating

(385XPG)

On models with the designation XPG/G there is an electrically heated carburettor. Electrically powered heating prevents ice formation in the carburettor. A thermostat regulates the heating so that the carburettor always has the right working temperature.
