MAINTENANCE

Muffler

The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to direct
the exhaust gases away from the operator. The exhaust gases
are hot and can contain sparks, which may cause fire if
directed against dry and combustible material.

Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor
mesh. If your machine has this type of muffler, you should
clean the mesh at least once a week. This is best done with a
wire brush.

CAUTION! The mesh must be replaced if it is damaged. If the
mesh is blocked the machine will overheat and this will cause
damage to the cylinder and piston. Never use a machine with
a muffler that is in poor condition.

A muffler fitted with a catalytic converter greatly reduces the
concentration of hydrocarbons (HC), oxides of nitrogen (NO)
and aldehydes emitted with exhaust gases. However, it does
not cut down carbon monoxide (CO), which you cannot smell!
Consequently, never work in an enclosed or badly ventilated
area. Good air circulation should always prevail when working
in snowy hollows, ravines or in confined conditions.

Needle bearing lubrication

The clutch drum is fitted with one of the following drive
sprockets:

A Spur sprocket (the chain sprocket is welded on the drum)

B Rim sprocket (replaceable)

Both versions have a needle bearing on the drive shaft, which
has to be greased regularly (once a week).

CAUTION! Use a high-quality bearing grease or engine oil.

Adjustment of the oil pump

The oil pump is adjustable. Adjustments are made by turning
the screw using a screwdriver or combination spanner. The
machine is supplied from the factory with the screw set to
position 2. Turning the screw clockwise will reduce the oil flow
and turning the screw anti-clockwise will increase the oil flow.

Recommended settings:

Bar 13"-15": Position 1

Bar 15"-18": Position 2

Bar 18"-20": Position 3

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.

CAUTION! The cooling system on a chain saw with catalytic
converter must be cleaned daily. This is particularly important
on chain saws with catalytic converters, because the higher
exhaust temperature requires efficient cooling of the engine
and the catalytic converter unit.

!

WARNING! The catalytic converter muffler
gets very hot during and after use. This also
applies during idling. Be aware of the fire
hazard, especially when working near
flammable substances and/or vapours.

!

WARNING! The engine must not be running
when making adjustments.
