15 Winter Operation

 

15.1

Preheating the carburetor

► Use the combination wrench or a screwdriver

to ease the shutter (1) out of the summer posi‐

tion 

s

.

213BA025 KN

► Fit the shutter in the winter position (

r

) –

symbol 

facing up.

Heated air is now drawn in from around the cylin‐

der to warm the carburetor – this helps prevent

carburetor icing.

► At temperatures above 20°C: Return the shut‐

ter to the summer position (

) to avoid

engine running problems and overheating.

15.1.2

At temperatures below -10°C

It is advisable to fit the "cover plate" kit (special

accessory) if you use your saw in extremely cold

conditions (temperatures below -10°C, in powder

or drifting snow).
If idling behavior is erratic or acceleration is poor:

► Turn the low speed screw (L) 1/4 of a turn

counterclockwise.

It is usually necessary to change the setting of

the idle speed screw (LA) after every correction

to the low speed screw (L) – see "Adjusting the

Carburetor".

► If your saw is very cold (frost or ice on

machine), start the engine and keep it at a

high idle speed (with chain brake disengaged)

until it reaches normal operating temperature.

15.2

Mounting kit

The cover plate mounting kit helps prevent snow

being sucked into the machine.
When the cover plate is fitted, the shutter must

be in the winter position.
In the event of engine running problems, first

check that the conditons for use of the cover

plate mounting kit still apply.
