MAINTENANCE
Cooling system
Winter use
During winter time, powder snow and cold weather can cause
running problems, such as:
•
•
Too low engine temperature.
Icing on the air filter and carburetor.
To obtain the lowest possible running temperature the saw is
equipped with a cooling system.
Therefore some special measures are required:
The cooling system
consists of:
5
•
Partly reduce the air inlet of the starter and by doing that
increase the engine temperature.
1.
Air intake on the starter
unit.
4
2.
3.
Air guide plate.
3
Temperature -5°C or colder:
Fan blades on the
flywheel.
4.
5.
Cooling fins on the
cylinder.
For running the saw in cold
weather or powder snow, a
special cover is available,
which is mounted on the
starter housing. This
Cylinder cowling
(supplies cold air over
the cylinder).

reduces the air flow and
prevents large amounts of
snow from being sucked in.
Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more often
in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling system
results in the saw overheating which causes damage to
piston and cylinder.
NOTE! If the special winterising kit has been fitted or any
measures have been taken to increase the temperature these
changes must be reversed before the saw is used in normal
temperature conditions. Otherwise there is a risk that the saw
will overheat, resulting in severe damage to the engine.
Centrifugal cleaning ”Air Injection”
IMPORTANT! Any maintenance other than that described in
this manual must be carried out by your servicing dealer.
Centrifugal cleaning means
the following:
All air to the carburetor is
carried through the starter.
Dirt and dust is centrifuged
away by the cooling fan.
IMPORTANT! In order to
keep the function of the
centrifugal cleaning, a
continous maintenance and
care must be made.
•
Clean the air intake to the
starter, the fan wings of the
flywheel, the space around
the flywheel, inlet pipe and
carburetor space.
