MAINTENANCE Temperature 0°C (32°F) or colder: The intermediate wall is designed so it can be adjusted for running in cold weather, so that preheated air from the cylinder can pass into the carburettor space preventing icing of the air filter, etc. Move the plug from position 1 to position 2 so that the preheated air from the cylinder can pass into the carburettor space and prevent ice from forming on the air filter. Lift off the air filter to obtain better access. Heated handles 543 XPG On models with the model code XPG both the front handle bar and the rear handle are equipped with electrical heating coils. These are supplied with electricity from a generator built into the chain saw. When the switch is pushed upwards, the heat is switched on. When the switch is pushed downwards, the heat is switched off. 1 2 For temperatures below -5°C and/or in snow conditions a special cover is available, which is mounted on the starter housing. Part number: 580 65 98-01. These reduce the flow of cooling air and prevent large amounts of snow from being sucked into the carburetor space. IMPORTANT! If the special winterising kit has been fitted or any measures have been taken to increase the temperature these changes must be reversed before the machine is used in normal temperature conditions. Otherwise there is a risk of overheating, resulting in severe damage to the engine. 36 - English
