MAINTENANCE
”Air Injection” centrifugal
cleaning
Otherwise there is a risk of overheating, resulting in
severe damage to the engine.
IMPORTANT! Any maintenance other than that
described in this manual must be carried out by your
servicing dealer (retailer).
Centrifugal cleaning means the following: All air to the
carburettor passes through the starter. Dirt and dust is
centrifuged out by the cooling fan.
Heated handles
(385XPG,
390XPG)
On models with the designation XPG/G, 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.
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
Running problems can occur when using the machine in
the cold and snowy conditions caused by:
Electrical carburettor heating
(385XPG)
•
•
Too low engine temperature.
On models with the designation XPG/G there is an
electrically heated carburettor. Electrically powered
heating prevents ice formation in the carburettor. A
thermostat regulates the heating so that the carburettor
always has the right working 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.
Temperature 0°C or colder:
For running the machine in cold weather or powder snow,
a special cover is available, which is mounted on the
starter housing. This reduces the intake of cold air and
prevents large amounts of snow from being sucked in.
CAUTION! 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
machine is used in normal temperature conditions.
