Winter Operation
Chain brake maintenance
At temperatures below 50 °F,
preheat the carburetor as follows:
:
At temperatures above 68 °F:
Return the shutter to the summer
position (s).
This is essential to avoid engine
running problems and overheating.
The chain brake is subject to normal
wear. It is necessary to have it serviced
and maintained regularly by trained
personnel, such as your STIHL servicing
dealer, at the following intervals:
At temperatures below 14°F
1
It is advisable to use the cover plate
mounting kit (special accessory) in
extremely cold operating conditions
(temperatures below 14 °F, in powder or
drifting snow).
Full-time professional
users:
every 3
months
Semi-professional
users (in agriculture
and construction):
:
Use the combination wrench or a
screwdriver to ease the shutter (1)
out of the summer position (s).
If engine idle speed is erratic or
acceleration is poor:
every 6
months
:
Turn low speed screw (L) 1/4 turn
Hobby and
counterclockwise.
occasional users:
every 12
months
It is usually necessary to change the
setting of the idle speed screw (LA)
after making adjustments to the low
speed screw (L) – see “Adjusting the
Carburetor”.
:
Fit the shutter in the winter position
(r at top) – as shown in the
illustration.
Heated air from around the cylinder now
flows around the carburetor – this helps
prevent carburetor icing.
