• Do not put pressure on the saw, es-

Pecially at the end of the cut. Doing

so can cause you to lose control

when the cut is completed.

your protective equipment and observe

all safety precautions. During the low

speed mixture adjustment recheck idle

speed after each tum of the screw. The

chain must not move at idle speed.

Carburetor adjustment isc_ and if

done improperly can permanently dam-

age the engine as well as the carbure-

tor. If you require further assistance or

are unsure about performing this proce-

dure, cell ourcustomer assistance help

line at 1-800-235-5878.

Old fuel, a dirty air filter, dirtyfuel filter,

or flooding may give the impression of

an improperly adjusted carburetor.

Check these conditionsbefore adjust-

ing the carburetor.

The carburetor has been carefullysat at

the factory.Adjustments may be neces-

sary if you notice any of the following

conditions:

Start motor, let it run for3 minutes, and

proceed tothe adjustment esc_on. If

engine does not start, refer to tmuble-

shooUngcha.,tor call 1-800-235-5878.

the preset positionsand there is no

chain movement at idle,no further ad-

justment is necessary.

ADJUSTING PROCEDURE

Idle Spasd-T

Allow engine to idle. Adjustspeed until

engine runswithoutchain movement or

stalling.

• Turn clock'_.sato increase engine

speed if engine stalls or dies.

• Turn counterclockwiseto decrease

speed.

No further adjustments are necessary if

chmn does not move at idle speed and

if performance issatisfactory.

Low Speed Mixture-L

Allow engine to idle.Then accelerate

the engine and noteperformance. If en-

gine hesitates, bogs down, orsmokes

duringacceleration,tum mixture screw

clockwisein 1/16-tumincrements until
