the carburettor electronically, always resulting in optimal
adjustment.
Function
The carburetor governs the engine’s speed via the
throttle control. Air and fuel are mixed in the
carburetor. The air/fuel mixture is adjustable.
The automatic adjustment of the carburettor means
that the engine is adapted to local conditions, e.g. the
climate, altitude, petrol and the type of 2-stroke oil.
This function is controlled by AutoTune.
Engine adjustment
The following steps should be taken when the chain saw
is started for the first time or when outside circumstances
change (fuel, altitude, air filter etc.):Start the engine.
Accelerate the engine and saw a number of cuts in a thick

The chain saw must be run (8,000 - 12,000 rpm) the entire
time so that the carburettor can adjust itself.
Conditions
