Electrical carburetor heating

(372XPG)

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

Canada

If this chain saw has the model code XPG/G then it is equipped with an electrically heated carburettor. The electrical heating prevents icing in the carburettor. A thermostat regulates heating so that the carburettor always has the correct working temperature.

Other countries

The carburettor heater is used in the following temperature range: ±0ºC or colder. During high humidity, icing of the carburettor can occur earlier than speciﬁed.

The carburettor heater only heats the carburettor when the 3-way switch is set to position ”II”.

The switch is off in position ”0”, supplies current to the handle heater in position ”I”, supplies current to the carburettor in position ”II”.

CAUTION! The carburettor heater reaches maximum temperature after about 3 minutes. It is therefore important that the machine is not run for longer with the heater switched on. If the switch is left on for too long the carburettor will overheat and lead to running problems or starting problems.
