Repair instructions 7.13 Carburettor WARNING! The fuel used for the chain saw has the following characteristics: 1. The liquid and its fumes are poi- sonous. 2. Can cause skin irritation. 3. Is very fl ammable. Description The images for this description do not correspond to the carburettor on the chain saw.
Page 36
Repair instructions Function The carburettor functions differently in the following modes: Cold start mode In cold start mode the choke valve (D) is com- pletely shut. This increases the vacuum in the carburettor and fuel is easier to suck from all the diffuser jets (E, F and G).
Page 37
Repair instructions Dismantling the carburettor Loosen the choke. Fig 37 Lift out the carburettor with a pair of fl at nosed pli- ers. Fig 38 Pull the throttle actuator rod to the right with a screwdriver. Rotate the carburettor downwards half a revolution.
