5.11 LONG PERIODS OF DISUSE
IMPORTANT If you are not going to use the ma-
chine for a period of more than 2-3 months, we
recommend you do a few things before putting it
away. This will make it easier when you want to
use the machine again and will also prevent per-
manent damage to the engine.
Before putting the machine away:
– Empty the fuel tank.
– Start the engine and run it idle until it comes to
a halt, so that it uses up all the fuel that is left
in the carburettor.
– Wait for the engine to cool down before stor-
ing the machine.
When you wish to start using the machine again,
prepare it as indicated in chapter "2. Preparing
to work".

6. EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE

This work must be done exclusively by your
Dealer.
All and any operations performed in unauthor-
ised centres or by unqualified persons will totally
invalidate the warranty.
6.1 TUNING MINIMUM SPEED
WARNING! If the cutting device moves
when the engine is running idle, contact your
Dealer to correctly regulate the engine.
6.2 CARBURETTOR ADJUSTMENTS
The carburettor is tuned by the manufacturer to
achieve maximum performance in all situations,
with a minimum emission of toxic gas in compli-
ance with the regulations in force.
In the case of poor performance contact your
Dealer for a check of the carburation and engine.
6.3 SHARPENING THE SAW BLADE
WARNING! For safety reasons, sharp-
ening and balancing should be done by a
Specialised Centre with suitable skills and
equipment for the job; without risking any
damage to the blade which would make it un-
safe when used.
WARNING! The saw blade is not revers-
ible, thus it must only be used from one side.

The blade must never be repaired, but must be
replaced as soon as signs of breaking are noted
or the sharpening limit is exceeded.
