FUEL FILTER

CAUTION: Never use the saw without a fuel
filter. After 20 hours in operation the fuel fil-
ter should be cleaned or, in case of dam-
age, replaced. Be sure to empty the fuel
tank before changing the filter.
1. Remove the fuel tank cap.
2. Bend a piece of soft wire.
3. Reach into fuel tank opening and hook fuel line.
Carefully pull the fuel line toward the opening until
you can reach it with your fingers.
NOTE: Do not pull hose completely out of tank.
4. Lift filter (A) out of tank (Fig. 19).
5. Pull off the filter with a twist and clean it; if the filter
is damaged, dispose of it.
6. Insert a new filter. Place one end of the filter into the
tank opening. Make sure that the filter is seated in
the lower corner of the tank. If necessary, use a
long screwdriver to move the filter to its correct posi-
tion, taking care not to damage in the process.
7. Fill tank with fresh fuel / oil mixture. See Section
FUEL AND LUBRICATION. Install fuel cap.

The carburetor was pre-set at the factory for optimum
performance. If further adjustments are necessary,
please take your unit to the nearest professional.

Storing a chain saw for longer than 30 days requires
storage maintenance. Unless the storage instructions are
followed, fuel remaining in the carburetor will evaporate,
leaving gum-like deposits. This could lead to difficult
starting and result in costly repairs.

CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT

STORING A CHAIN SAW

CAUTION: Never put a chain saw into stor-
age for longer than 30 days without carrying
out the following steps.
Remove the fuel tank cap slowly to release any
pressure in tank. Carefully drain the fuel tank.
Start the engine and let it run until the unit stops to
remove fuel from carburetor.
Allow the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
Using a spark plug wrench, remove the spark plug.
Pour 1 teaspoon of clean 2-cycle oil into the
combustion chamber. Pull starter rope slowly
several times to coat internal components. Replace
spark plug (Fig. 22).
