9.7 Setting the throttle cable
If the maximum speed of the equipment drops
over time and you have ruled out all the other
possible causes listed in section 12 „Troubleshoo-
ting“, it may be necessary to adjust the throttle
cable. First of all check whether the carburetor
opens fully when the throttle handle is pressed
right through. This is the case if the carburetor sli-
de (Fig. 28) is completely opened when the thrott-
le is fully activated. Figure 28 shows the correct
setting. If the carburetor slide is not completely
open, it must be adjusted. The following steps are
required to adjust the throttle cable:
Undo the lock nut (Fig. 29/Item C) a few turns.
Turn out the adjusting screw (Fig. 29/Item D) until
the carburetor slide is completely open when the
throttle is fully activated, as shown in Figure 28.
Retighten the lock nut.
9.8 Setting the idling speed
Important! Set the idling speed when the equip-
ment is warm.
If the engine stalls when the throttle is not pressed
and you have ruled out all the other possible
causes listed in section 12 „Troubleshooting“, the
idling speed must be adjusted. To do this, turn
the idling speed screw (Fig. 29/Item E) clockwise
until the equipment runs smoothly at idling speed.
If the idling speed is so fast that the cutting tool
turns as well, it has to be reduced by turning the
idling speed screw for as long as is required for
the cutting tool to stop turning as well.
9.9 Applying grease to the gear unit
After every 20 hours of use add a little gear grea-
se (approx. 10 g.) at the lubrication nipple (Fig. 4/
Item 28).
10. Cleaning, storage, transport and
ordering of spare parts
10.1 Cleaning
•
Regularly clean the tensioning mechanism
by blowing it out with compressed air or
cleaning it with a brush. Do not use any tools
for cleaning.
•
Keep the handles free of oil so that you can
maintain a firm grip.
•
Clean the equipment as required with a damp
cloth and, if necessary, mild washing up
liquid.
•
If you are not going to use the chainsaw for an
extended period of time, remove the chain oil
from the tank. Briefly immerse the saw chain
and the cutter bar into an oil bath and then
wrap them in oil paper.
Important!
Always pull out the spark boot plug each time
before carrying out any cleaning. Never immerse
the equipment in water or other liquids in order to
clean it.
Store the chainsaw in a safe and dry place out of
the reach of children.
10.2 Storage
Important: Never put the equipment into storage
for longer than 30 days without carrying out the
following steps.
Storing the equipment
If you intend to store the equipment for longer
than 30 days, the equipment must be prepared
accordingly. Otherwise the fuel still remaining in
the carburetor will evaporate and leave a rubbery
sediment. This can cause problems when starting
up the equipment and may require expensive
repairs.
1. Slowly remove the fuel tank cap to release
any pressure that may have formed in the
tank. Carefully empty the tank.
2. To remove the fuel from the carburetor, start
the engine and let it run until the equipment
stops.
3. Leave the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
4. Remove the spark plug (see section 9.5).
5. Add one teaspoon of 2-stroke engine oil into
the combustion chamber. Slowly pull the star-
ter cord several times to apply a layer of oil
to all internal components. Fit the spark plug
again.
