The carburetor has been carefully set at the
factory. Adjustments may be necessary if

• Chain moves at idle. See iDLE SPEED-T
adjusting procedure.

crease engine speed.

through the cut. or been run with an improper
amount of bar lubrication it may be neces-

in the STOP position, then clean all sawdust
from the guide bar and sprocket hole.
