Tensioning the rewind spring
N
Make a loop in the unwound starter
rope and use it to turn the rope rotor
six full revolutions in the direction of
the arrow.
N
Hold the rotor steady.
N
Pull out and straighten the twisted
rope.
N
Let go of the rotor.
N
Release the rope slowly so that it
winds onto the rotor.
The starter grip must locate firmly in the
rope bushing. If the grip droops to one
side: Add one more turn on the rope
rotor to increase spring tension.
When the starter rope is fully extended it
must still be possible to rotate the rotor
another half turn. If this is not the case,
the spring is overtensioned and could
break.
N
Take one turn of the rope off the
rotor.
Replacing a broken rewind spring
N
Remove the rope rotor.
N
Use a screwdriver to carefully
remove the parts of the spring from
the housing.
N
Lubricate the new spring with a few
drops of non-resinous oil.
N
Place the new spring with retaining
frame in position in the fan housing
– the anchor loop must engage the
lug in the housing.
N
Apply suitable tools (screwdriver,
punch, etc.) to the recesses
(arrows) and push the spring into its
seat – it slips out of the retaining
frame in this process.
N
Reinstall the rope rotor, tension the
rewind spring, fit the fan housing
and secure it in position.
For periods of 3 months or longer
N
Drain and clean the fuel tank in a
well ventilated area.
N
Dispose of fuel properly in
accordance with local
environmental requirements.
N
Run the engine until the carburetor
is dry – this helps prevent the
carburetor diaphragms sticking
together.
N
Remove the saw chain and guide
bar, clean them and spray with
corrosion inhibiting oil.
N
Thoroughly clean the machine –
pay special attention to the cylinder
fins and air filter.
N
If you use a biological chain and bar
lubricant, e.g. STIHL BioPlus,
completely fill the chain oil tank.
N
Store the machine in a dry, high or
locked location, out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
