22.1
Verify the RPM’s using the tachometer.
Start and warm up the saw.
NOTE: This is a “no load” tuning
procedure. The side cover must be
securely fastened with a bar and chain.
Water MUST be used, failure to follow
this procedure may result in personal
injury and or damage to the saw.
22.2
Using the tachometer, check the saw
RPM’s at idle.
• Idle speed = 2700 RPM’s +/- 150.
22. IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
• Make minor adjustments using the
throttle screw.
Using the tachometer, check the saw
RPM’s at full throttle.
• Full throttle target = 9300 RPM’s +/-
150.
• Make minor adjustments using the
throttle screw.
Do not hold the saw at maximum RPM
for more than 5 seconds.
If the full throttle RPM falls below this
range, turn the H needle clockwise 1/16
of a turn at a time, checking the RPM’s at
each interval.
NOTE: pulse the throttle to stablize the
system.
Once the carburetor is adjusted, install
the chain to the proper tension and
continue normal operations.

Engine starvation can result from a leak
or malfunction of any of the main
components of the fuel system.

24.3
Remove and inspect the fuel lter.
Replace the fuel lter if the lter is
excessively dirty or there is foreign
material stuck to it.

If the pressure does not maintain,
separate the fuel line from the carburetor
TROUBLESHOOTING
24. FUEL SYSTEM
24.5
Plug one end of the fuel pick-up tube.
Pressurize the tube to 7 psi (0.5 bar).
If the pressure holds, the leak has been
isolated to the carburetor. Refer to the
Walbro Carburetor Service Manual.
http://wem.walbro.com/distributors/servicemanuals
24.6
The fuel tank breather stabilizes the
pressure in the fuel tank preventing both
excessive pressure, which could ood
the engine and negative pressure which
could starve the engine of fuel.
