Carefully wipe off any fuel around the plug to avoid a
sudden flash of fire.
(1) Remove Spark Plug Ass’y BPMR7A
[73]
from the Cylinder
[74]
. Use a wire brush to clean off carbon deposits on the
electrodes of Spark Plug Ass’y BPMR7A
[73]
, as needed.
Adjust the gap between the electrodes if necessary. Use a
cloth to wipe off any fuel on the electrodes. Remove fuel left
in the Crank Case
[96]

[73]
should make a snapping sound to generate sparks.
2. Adjustment of the carburetor
(1) Use the Idle Adjust Screw
[12]

screw clockwise increases engine revolutions; turning it
counterclockwise decreases engine revolutions.
(2) Standard setting of the carburetor
• 2,800 to 3,200 min
-1
(Confirm that the saw chain does not rotate.)
(3) Fine adjustment
• Idling adjustment
(a) Adjust the idling revolutions after the engine is fully
warmed up.
(Tip on warm-up: Let the engine idle for one minute with the engine in half-throttled status.)
(b) Use the Idle Adjust Screw
[12]
to set revolutions so that the Saw Chain
[132]
does not start
rotating while the engine runs stably.
(c) Set idling revolutions to 2,800 to 3,200 min
-1
by using the Idle Adjust Screw
