7-6.CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT

The carburetor was pre-set at the factory for optimum per-
formance. If further adjustments are necessary, please take
your unit to the nearest Authorized Service Center listed in
the Yellow Pages.

7-7.STORING A CHAIN SAW

CAUTION
Never store a chain saw for longer than 30 days without
performing the following procedures.
Storing a chain saw for longer than 30 days requires stor-
age maintenance. Unless the storage instructions are fol-
lowed, fuel remaining in the carburetor will evaporate, leav-
ing gum-like deposits. This could lead to difficult starting
and result in costly repairs.
1. Remove the fuel tank cap slowly to release any pres-
sure in tank. Carefully drain the fuel tank.
2. Start the engine and let it run until the unit stops to
remove fuel from carburetor.
3. Allow the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
