MAINTENANCE

Cooling system

To keep the working temperature as low as possible the
machine is equipped with a cooling system.

The cooling system consists of:

1

Air intake on the starter.

2

Air guide plate.

3

Fins on the flywheel.

4

Cooling fins on the cylinder.

5

Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).

Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more
often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling
system results in the machine overheating which causes
damage to the piston and cylinder.

Centrifugal cleaning “Turbo”

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

During cold weather and under powder snow conditions,
operating problems can arise due to:

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.

Heated handles

(CS 2171WH)

On models with the designation W, 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.

When the red mark on the switch is visible, the heating is on.

Electrical carburettor heating

(CS 2171WH)

This machine is equipped with an electronically controlled
carburettor heater.

Applications

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.
