Replacing the spark plug

CAUTION:
Do not touch the spark plug or plug cap if the engine is
running (high voltage).
Switch off the engine before starting any maintenance
work.
A hot engine can cause burns. Wear protective gloves!
The spark plug must be replaced in case of a damage of the
insulating body, consumption of the electrodes or if the elctrodes
are very dirty or oily.
- Loosen both screws of the fi lter cover (A/1) and remove
the fi lter cover (see fi g. clean air fi lter).
- Pull off the plug cap (C/3) from the spark plug. Only use
the universal wrench delivered with the chain saw for de-
mounting.

- Position a screw driver between the two latches and separate
the upper and lower part by turning it.
- Clean the air fi lter with a soft brush.
- If the fi lter is very dirty, clean it in lukewarm soapsuds with
standard detergent.
- Let the air fi lter dry completely.
- Assemble the upper and lower part and put them on the
intake stack. Firmly tighten the screws (A/4).
If the fi lter is very dirty, clean it frequently (several times a day),
because only a clean air fi lter guarantees full engine power.
