Note
: A new chain can expand in length in the
beginning. You should therefore periodically inspect
and tighten it - as a loose chain can jump off and cause
wear of the chain and the bar.
Fig 8-9. This product is equipped with a 2-stroke
We recommend the ALCO 2-stroke oil in a 2.5%
mixture. That means mixing 0.1 l of 2-stroke oil with 4 l
of unleaded E5 gasoline.
Always follow the guidelines of mixture given by oil
manufacturer, however, always use minimum a 2.5%
mixture (never 2%). If doubt about the guideline of
mixture from oil manufacturer, then use a 4% mixture.
Alkylate gasoline is not recommended, as it is 2%
mixture only and can damage the engine.
The warranty will not cover if this happens.
Remember gasoline is highly flammable.

The carburetor on your unit has been factory adjusted
but may require fine tuning due to change in operating
conditions. Before adjusting the carburetor, make sure
that provided are clean air/fuel filters and fresh, properly
mixed fuel.

anticlockwise.
L needle = 1 ¼ turn
H needle = 1¼ turn

Subsequently let it run without accelerating.
5. Turn L needle slowly clockwise to find the position
with max revolutions. Then turn the screw ¼ turn
back anticlockwise.
6. Tighten the idling screw T (1) clockwise, until the
