Repair nstructions 7.14 Carburettor WARNING! The fuel used in the chain saw has the following hazardous properties: 1. The fluid and its vapour are poisonous. 2. Can cause skin irritation. 3. Is highly inflammable. Description The gures accompanying this description do not correspond with the carburettor on the chain saw.
Page 35
Repair nstructions Function The carburettor operates differently in the following modes: Cold start mode dling mode Part throttle mode ull throttle mode n cold start mode the choke al e H is completely shut. This increases the acuum in the carburettor and fuel is easier to suck from all the diffuser ets , E, and .

Repair nstructions Pressure testing the carburettor Pressure testing should be carried out with the car- burettor fully assembled. Testing should always be carried out after the carburettor has been repaired, but a test can also be made for troubleshooting before dismantling. ption 1 See the gure and carry out the check as follows: Connect pressure tester to the carburettor fuel inlet.
Page 41
Repair nstructions Make sure the cabling is tted to its mounting on the intake ange. Press the fuel hose in place in the collar on the intake bellows. Hook on the throttle cable E in its mounting on the intake bellows. See gure 46. Make sure the lug on the carburettor hooks in place on its mounting on the intake system.
